This function is identical with the display function from the Joints toolbar.
As for the joints, processings based on rules are controlled with a connection object, through which the feature properties can be changed. By default, the connection object is not visible. The Display function enables the fading in of the connection object, represented in the model as a gray object (boxes).
To display the connection object, an appropriate processing object must be selected. They are visible if the beam is in the Feature representation type.
In order to fade out again the connection object, you must use the Selected objects off function from the Quick views tool palette.
