Hi there,

Is there a way to specify which DXF file to import as a polygon in a work plane, using a parameter?

I'm generating the structures I want to study using a (Python) script that exports them as DXF files. Typically, I vary some parameters to optimize the structures, so I'll end up with a folder filled with (slightly different) DXF files. Ideally, I would like to loop over the files in this folder using a COMSOL Parametric Sweep, for example by using the file name as a sweep parameter. Is this possible?

Thanks!

Hi Francois,

I have a similar situation in which I would like to parameterize the DXF import file. Can you share the solution you suggested to Jesse in the private correspondance?

Thanks, Chris
