2D Cross Section and Parametric Sweep

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Dear all

I am simulating a Cross section of a 3D problem. Everything goes well, except when I want to sweep a geometrical parameter (with the Parametric Sweep, not Auxiliary of course.)

If I do it, it does not reconstruct the 3D object and then takes the linecut. All I have is a warning: "3D objects preceding work plane need rebuild." That is strange as I am pretty sure it worked in the past (5.3)

Is there is a way to force the 5.3a version to update the 3D before taking the Cross Section ?

This is a severe limitation to Cross section...

PS: It works by sweeping a material parameter, so the parametric sweep is working

Dear Daniel,

Thanks a lot for your answer. Fortunately, I solved my problem by : 1: rebooting the computer 2 :re-installing Comsol 5.3a

Don't ask me how, it fxed it, but it worked.

Best regards, Jean
