Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:
- Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
- Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
- Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
- Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
- Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
- Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.
Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.
By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Use the Hierarchy Editor to find the parts (check Highlight Selected). If they all turn red at once when you click a single Model Part, there's little you can do. Try loading the model with CollapseModelParts = FALSE in the Options. After that I don't think there is anything?

Hi,
Like Tom says you need to use the hierarchy editor. But if other polygons use the same material it can be that they are all grouped in one part.
The CollapseModelParts setting only affects certain formats you import from. When you import a FSX/P3D MDL file it doesn't do much, as XtoMDL merges everything together when it made the MDL file. But for some other formats it allows you to keep more parts.
