If you wish, you can right click on the GUI and choose New View > Display view in the active window from the floating window that pops up.

You can simply click on “Turn on/off Individual Beam Level” icon. On doing this you can see that there is a change in the cursor image. You can rubber band the portion on the members where you do not want to see the UR.
