[GiDlist] different layers visualization

Post by Aldo Ghisi »

Hello,

sometimes it would be profitable if I could see in the same view a layer as
wireframe and another as shaded.
Is it possible?

by now, it is not possible.

If you are speaking for the post process part, it is already in the
TODO list. I think it'll be present for version 7.x, but not for 7.0.

for the preprocess part, it is not present in the todo list,
but it is an interesting idea.
Which situations do you think, this feature will be interesant?

Yes, I was talking about the preprocess phase.

I think it could be useful when you are making corrections over a _very
complex_ model (using GiD as a CAD) and you need to change some surfaces in
the interior of volumes (an "hand-made" defeaturing :-)).

Then, you could visualize some parts as shaded and what you want to change
as wireframe.
Otherwise you see a lot of lines or only the exterior of the model.

Thank you and regards
