Once the initialization is completed you can go to Geant4 and choose Geometry. There you will see many buttons corresponding to the various detector components. Clicking on any of these buttons displays the corresponding component. To clear the page go to page and click on clear page. One can also create multiple regions using this pull-down menu, etc. Cut views can also be created using the scene pull-down menu. various other functionalities exist and are fairly straight forward to use. Moving and zooming the display object can be achieved using the turning wheels on the GUI or using one of the three mouse buttons.
