This means that these folders are hidden unless you have multiple bodies of that type in your model. For example, if you have 2 or more solid bodies, than your "Solid Bodies" folder will be shown, if you have 2 or more surface bodies, then your "Surface Bodies" folder will be shown. To change the visibility of these folders, go to Tools -> Options, and under the System Options tab, select Feature Manager from the left column, change the settings using the pull-down arrow beside "Solid Bodies" and "Surface Bodies" to "Show".

How can I achieve this? I noticed that your feature tree always shows the “Solid Bodies” and “Surface Bodies” folders at all times, even when there is one or no bodies in your model.
