A simple way to visualize your grid in prostar/proam is to click on "C->" Then Select New Zone. Define the Zone on your screen. Click on Cell Plot. Then, you have an internal view.

How to generate internal view?
 
Many thanks. It works. But forgive my one more question. How would I view through a slanted section of my geometry/mesh? That I want to view a sectional cut.

Regards

To have a better view, you can use the command line :

cset newset xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax,zmin,zmax,1 (to select properly the zone you want to see.)

1 is for cartesian, 2 for cylindrical...

Click on Cell plot

If you want a section slice:

1)click on the "Section slice button" - it will bring up a cursor that allows you to draw the slice through the current plot.

2)Click on "View->Snormal" to set the view normal to the section

3)Click on button underneath "Geometry Plot" and change it to either "Section (All)" or Section (Surface)" depending upon what you want to see.

You can also set everything individually by looking at the SPOINT, SNORM, VIEW, and PLTYPE commands
