FEM Static - how to hide original part?

ZW3D CAD
1

Hello everyone,

I have another question regarding static analysis using the finite element method (FEM). After calculating my task, the graphical result is displayed. And then two shapes - 1. deformed with color graphical analysis, 2. original part (undeformed).

The problem is that I don’t see the full graphical color result - right in the places where the deformed part is covered by the original shape.

Then it’s quite confusing when I don’t see the deformation in all nodes/surfaces.

I haven’t figured out how to hide the original component, nothing works for me.

Do you have some advice?

Thank you!

Hi,
which version are you using? I run into the same issue on ZW3D 2026 up to one week ago. I then upgraded to SP1 and the issue seems solved: now I can see on the top left corner a drop down menu allowing to choose between various visualization options:
