    Hi @Edlin Lewis 

     

    Plotel elements are plotting elements that can be represented as 2D or 1D elements.

    For 1D elements a nice way of creating some of them is using the 'edges' panel or in the new interface 'Validate>Free edges'.

    By selecting your components, HM will generate a bunch of 1D lines around your model edges, that are plote elements.

    If you already have a couple elements and need to convert them to PLOTEL, then you could use the 'elem type' panel. i.e: change the quad4 type to PLOTEL4 and update your selected quad elements.
