Using display groups to display subsets of your model
By default,
Abaqus/CAE
displays your entire model; however, you can choose to display subsets of your
model by creating display groups.
These subsets can contain combinations of part instances,
geometry (cells, faces, or edges), datum geometry (points, axes, planes, or
coordinate systems), elements, nodes, and surfaces from the current model or
output database. This chapter explains the concept of display groups and
how you can manage them.
