Context
Comments
This graphic type is used with softsoil road to visualize deformation contours on MotionSolve result file in HyperView.
The given H3D file is passed to the solver as is. Hence no positioning, orienting, or scaling with respect to the reference marker is possible on this graphic.
To avoid the graphic being visible during MotionSolve result animation in HyperView, set the hide_in_post attribute to {{true}}. For example: *Set(gra_link.hide_in_post, true). This option will set the graphic component's visibility to be turned off when the result H3D is loaded in HyperView.
