Hello,
I am an engineering student and am currently using MSC Adams to do the dynamic simulation of a bicycle (I am new to the software). I downloaded a model of bicycle in parasolid file from the internet and imported it on Adams View and I could import it without problem, but when I tried to import it on Adams Car the model wouldn't show. I tried several times with other parasolid files but nothing showed. Could someone help me please? Thank you very much in adavance.

Try "Tools- Adams View Interface"
Then return "Tools - Select Mode - ..."

Thank you very much for your answer. I searched for that option but it doesn't appear in Tools (as shown in the attachment below)

Find file ".acar.cfg" in working directory and change user mode from standard to expert (manually rewrite)

Hello, I did what you told me and it worked, thank you very much. But the model is still not showing, and when I checked the body part, the body parts are there but the model is not showing (as shown below).

Be make sure that to import the objects into the model selected template you need. After display it through menu "View - model". Now in picture only empty model

Hello,
I have been able to open my model in the Adams View interface of Adams car but when I go back to the Standard interface of Adams Car, the model disappear.
