Hi,

I have a geometry that I imported from SolidWorks and am trying to use the cap faces feature, but the defeaturing and repair option is not available to me. I'm not able to attach the file, even after following the instructions to reduce the file size, it is too large to import. If anyone would be able to give me insight as to why this is happening, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you,

Nina

Hello Nina,

In the Settings window for the Geometry 1 node, make sure that the "Geometry representation" dropdown is set to CAD kernel, not COMSOL kernel.

Best,

Jeff
