As you see above, there are bunch of useful informations about selected face in ‘Selection Information’ window. There are informations of surface area, centroid about X, Y and Z axes.

For example again, we selected a bunch of nodes as you see above, and all the information related to selected nodes are shown. These informations are place of selected nodes in terms of X, Y and Z axes adn node ID numbers.

Also if you select the mesh elements as above in ANSYS Mechanical, you can see the informations of; Element ID, Element Type which can be a very useful information and on which body does it exist.

Also you can take a look at the masses and volumes of bodies, lengths of line elements etc.

As you see that ‘Selection Information’ window is very useful tool to obtain informations about various features on graphics window in ANSYS Mechanical.
