The context bar is located under the toolbar; you can use it to do the following:
Select the current module
The Module list on the context bar allows you to move between modules. (For more information, see “What is a module?,” Section 2.3.)
Note: ABAQUS/Viewer contains only the Visualization module.
Select module-specific items
As you move between modules, ABAQUS/CAE displays additional items on the context bar that help you select the context of your current operations. For example, when you are in the Part module or Mesh module, ABAQUS/CAE displays the Part list in the context bar. The Part list contains every part in your model; you can use it to retrieve a particular part. The context bar also allows you to move between models in the model database or to change the output database associated with the current viewport. The additional items in the context bar are a function of the module in which you are working.
The items displayed in the context bar always refer to the current viewport, which is indicated by a dark gray title bar. For example, if you have different parts displayed in different viewports, the context bar indicates the name of the part displayed in the current viewport.
