Local Options

Autocolor visualization mode
Change the graphics display based on the browser view mode you have selected. If Model or Component View is selected, then the visualization mode will change to "By Comp". If Material View is selected, then the visualization mode will change to "By Mat". If Property View is selected, then the visualization mode will change to "By Prop". If the Autocolor visualization mode is not active, then the visualization modes will not change automatically when you are in a certain browser view, instead, you will have to manually change the visualization mode from the Visualization toolbar.
Delete association
Open the Delete component(s) and unique associations dialog when Delete Advanced is selected from the context menu. When this box is checked off, the Delete component(s) and unique associations dialog does not open when Delete Advanced is selected from the context menu, and the entities uniquely related to the selected component are automatically deleted. Only available for components in the LS-DYNA user profile.
Hide attached
Mask the attached elements from the graphics area when you perform the Hide functionality on the following entities: loads, load collectors, load steps, groups and contact surfaces. This could be observed if the elements are currently displayed. This will not alter the display state to off, that is local display icon will not be Dimmed.
Show/hide/isolate Include files with References
Show, hide, isolate the contents of the Include files when you Show/Hide/Isolate the Include file. If you turn this option off, Show/Hide/Isolate will only affect the components and other HM entities that have graphics (vectors, systems, plies, laminates, loads) in the Include file of the Model, Solver, and ID Manger browsers.
Show/Isolate/Isolate Only attached
Bring the attached elements to the graphics area when you perform the Show/Isolate/Isolate Only functionality on the following entities: loads, load collectors, load steps, groups and contact surfaces. This could be observed if the elements are currently masked or the elements belonging to the component's display state is off. This will also turn the local display icon to Bold if the component is currently with the display state off.
