Visualizing the Imported Geometry
Examine the Geometry Scene 1 display in the Graphics window. Initially all parts of the mesh are shown as solid, colored surfaces.
- Click on one of the parts. The boundary selected is highlighted and a label with its name appears on the display.

In the isotropicPorousMedia window, the node that corresponds to this boundary is also highlighted.
Similarly, if any other boundary node is selected in the isotropicPorousMedia window, the surface corresponding to that boundary will be highlighted in the Graphics window.
- Point anywhere in the Geometry Scene 1 display, hold down the left mouse button and begin moving the mouse; this action rotates the visualized parts. Similarly, doing this while holding down the right mouse button will pan, or shift the parts.
- Use the middle mouse button to zoom: drag the mouse backward or forward, making the visualized parts larger or smaller.
- Rather than use the mouse facilities to adjust the view approximately, click on the
button at the top of the Geometry Scene 1 window and select , as shown below.

The geometry display will be re-oriented, as shown below.
