12.4 Enhanced node editing functionality

Product: Abaqus/CAE  

Benefits: You can now undo or redo changes to node positions directly from the Edit Nodes dialog box. In addition, you can now select the new locations for the nodes you want to move directly from the viewport. These enhancements streamline the process of editing nodes in a part or assembly.

Description: The Edit Nodes dialog box now includes undo and redo functionality that enable you to undo or redo the changes you make to nodes in a part or assembly. The Undo options are available from the bottom portion of the Edit Nodes dialog box, shown in Figure 12–3.

The new buttons provide undo control over edits to nodal position only; if you want to roll back or restore other changes in the Edit Mesh toolset, use the undo and redo options in the Edit Mesh dialog box. The Specification method options now enable you to make changes to nodal location by picking points in the viewport. When you click for specification by offset, you can select two points in the viewport that represent the offset vector you want to use. When you use the same method to specify new coordinates, you can select a new point directly from the viewport.
