Name

B — Clears the mged display of any currently displayed objects, then displays the list of objects provided in the parameter list.

Synopsis

B [[-A -o] | attribute name {value}... ] [-s] [-C#/#/#] [-R] [objects]

DESCRIPTION

Clears the mged display of any currently displayed objects, then displays the list of objects provided in the parameter list. Equivalent to the Z command followed by the command draw <objects>. The -C option provides the user a way to specify a color that overrides all other color specifications including combination colors and region id-based colors. The -A and -o options allow the user to select objects by attribute. The -s option specifies that subtracted and intersected objects should be drawn with solid lines rather than dot-dash lines. The -R option means do not automatically resize the view if no other objects are displayed. See the draw command for a detailed description of the options.

EXAMPLES

The following are run from the MGED command prompt.

Example 1. Display a named object

mged> B some_object

The display clears, and the object named some_object is displayed.



Example 2. Draw objects having an attribute with a value

mged>B -A -o Comment {First comment} Comment {Second comment}

The display clears, then draws objects that have a "Comment" attribute with a value of either "First comment" or "Second comment."
