Hi, you can run this script:

Code:

# PYTHON script

import os

import ansa

from ansa import *



def main():

    deck = constants.OPENFOAM

    base.BlockRedraws(True)

    pids = base.CollectEntities(deck, None, 'SHELL_PROPERTY')

    for pid in pids:

        base.Or(pid)

        vis_parts = base.CollectEntities(deck, None, 'ANSAPART', filter_visible = True)

        print('PID ', pid._id, ' is used by ', len(vis_parts), 'parts : ', ', '.join([p._name for p in vis_parts]))

    base.BlockRedraws(False)





if __name__ == '__main__':

    main()

If you don't want to use python scripting, you can show only the PID, then open the model browser (part manager) and do a box selection from the screen. The parts of that PID will be selected.
