Use this procedure to detach a mass element from a mass group. After you have defined a mass group and added mass elements to it, you may decide that one or more elements do not fit your model. You can detach these from the mass group and use them elsewhere or delete them.
When an element is detached from a mass group, the element display is turned on because it is an individual entity and is no longer part of the group.
- Select the mass group.
- Select the Detach Elements grip.
Alternatively, you can click
. 
- Select one or more mass elements to detach from the mass group.
If there is only one element attached to the mass group, you are not prompted to select elements. The single element is detached without further input.
- Press Enter.
