Hmm. In my experience, one overrides the properties of a domain (or surface, or edge, etc...) by specifying new properties for it, which then "override" the ones previously-specified (either by the user or by default). I am not familiar with an explicit "override" command or menu item, but Comsol Multiphysics is a very complicated tool, so I suppose there may be something like that in it, somewhere. :)

Hi,

You can control whether to display the Override and Contribution section, which appears in the Settings windows for physics features and lists which other physics features that feature is overridden by, overrides, or contributes to. To activate that display, open the Show More Options dialog box from the top menu in the Model Builder window and select the Override and Contribution check box under General. Overrides and contributions then also appear in the model tree as "node decorations" (red arrows for overrides and orange bullets for contributions).

Best regards,

Magnus Ringh, COMSOL
