Using the display group tool (view -&amp;gt; toolbars -&amp;gt; display group) 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
to remove the cell on the left, then pick the point of interest.
&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Picking a node within a 3D Solid Volume</title>
 <link>http://www.imechanica.org/node/7257</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;hi all,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have a solid 3D part made of concrete. I would need&lt;br /&gt;
the results of a few points inside the concrete. However, I realised it&lt;br /&gt;
was not easy to pick them when doing a Set because the nodes are hidden&lt;br /&gt;
(they are not on the surface. I have 1) partition my model exactly at&lt;br /&gt;
the points when I need to pick 2) i name the points as datum points.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Using the CAE interface, how can i pick this nodes? I have attached a pic for better understanding. Can anyone please advise?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you.&lt;/p&gt;
