Organization of Bodies

You can apply simulation features easily by organizing bodies into folders. Cut lists for beams and sheet metal bodies appear in the Simulation study tree.

To create sub-folders, right-click a folder in the Simulation study tree and select Create New Folder. You can then drag entities into the new folder.

All options under the parent folder are available for a newly created sub-folder, for example:


  • You can assign the same material properties to the bodies in a sub-folder under the Parts folder.
  • You can drag existing pressure loads to a sub-folder under the External Loads folder.
