Description

Creates a FEM constraint for a fixed geometry entry by locking all 6 degrees of freedom of the selected object.

How to use

  1. Click on or choose ModelMechanical Constraints Constraint fixed from the top menu.
  2. Select in the 3D-view the object the constraint should be applied to, which can be
    1. vertices (corners)
    2. edges
    3. faces

Limitations

You cannot mix object-types within the same constraint. Use one fixed constraint for each object type.
