FSI: Moving mesh (ale) vs Moving mesh

Hello,

I have the doubt of which of these two options select for my FSI simulation:

-The moving mesh in: Components-Definitions-Moving mesh-Deforming Domain

-The moving mesh (ale) in: Components-Moving mesh

If I use moving mesh (ale) in the results I can only see the deformation of the boundary separating the fluid from the solid, while if I use moving mesh I can see the meshes deforming properly not only in the boundary. Is there any difference between the two? Does it impact only to the visualization?

Thank you
