Introduction

Often it is desired to quickly turn surface display on/off for major elements such as the mesh and contours, as well as to change the contour intervals.  This form provides a quick method for managing the basics of surface display - this is particularly useful when there are multiple surfaces in the project.

It also provides similar controls over Models and Section lines.

Changes made are written to the Outputs control for each surface.

This is not a modeless form, it must be closed before work can continue in the drawing.
