Cyclic Symmetry Enhancements

[Deleted User]

Hi Victor,

I don't know if this is possible for you to do, however, it would be nice if you could apply cyclic symmetry to face selections from meshes imported from Netgen. So instead of node selections, it worked off face selections. Lastly, there wouldn't be a restriction on how the mesh was created. Currently, if I select the nodes from the Netgen mesh and setup Cyclic Symmetry, it ends with an error. For this type of analysis, I have to go back to using ANSYS Workbench.

They two surfaces have to have the same node pattern so it doesn't work with automeshed parts unfortunately. This probably isn't something I'll improve in the foreseeable future because cyclic symmetry is a rarely used feature.
