The Display panel allows you to visualize loads on mesh and loads on geometry either individually or together by setting the collector type to loadcols and using the toggle between elems and geoms.  The elems option controls the display of loads on mesh while geom controls the display of loads on geometry.  A simultaneous display is similar to the display of both elements and geometry belonging to a specific component.

Note:A major graphical display difference between loads on geometry and loads on mesh is the density of the arrows.  Multiple arrows represent loads on mesh (one arrow per node or element); a single arrow for each geometrical entity represents loads on geometry.  The basic length of the arrow also differs.  For the same arrow magnitude percentage setting or uniform size setting within the load application panels, an arrow that represents a load on geometry is longer than arrows representing loads on mesh.
