Finding a Mesh Node

/Vertex Id and XYZ Position/Field Values
- Orient the mesh and zoom in so that the region of the mesh containing the nodes of interest is visible.
- Set surface type for the displayed mesh to "Surface" (i.e., not "wireframe").
- Click the "Select Points On" icon (or "Edit -> Select Points On" via menus)
- Drag out a rectangular region surrounding the nodes/vertices of interest.
- The Selection Inspector will list the index corresponding to these points.
- The index for these points can be shown onscreen by scrolling down in the Selection Inspector "Display Style" section, clicking on "Point Label", and checking "Visible".
- To see XYZ locations, field values, do the following
- In the upper right corner of the 3D display, click the "Split Vertical" tab, and press "Spreadsheet View" in the new area.
- Now go to the Object Inspector, Display tab, and check "Show only selected Elements". The spreadsheet view will now only show data for the selected vertices. Note that vector values in the spreadsheet have their column width default to only wide enough to show the x component, so grab the column title dividers and stretch the vector columns to be wide enough to show all 3 components.
