Filter_Show only the steel member and off the RC member or any other steel member ?

[tngv75955631]

I try to model a Precast building which include the steel structure and Reinforced Precast Concrete Panel. Now I want to display the steel member only and turn off the display of the precast panels or display the steel rafters and turn off display of the steel column.

I think Robot can do it. Please show me how to do it.

Thanks.

All these steel-reinforced-precast details are irrelevant to this issue.

Go to filters and select 1D elements only: "bars-all".
Then click the "Edit in new window icon",

You may want to refine your selection by specific member type, create groups etc.
