Hi Teo,

What is the version of HyperWorks are you using?

 

Are you using a student Edition or full suite?

 

If you are using Student Edition, Auto Entities is not available.

Hi @teo

 

Can you share a snapshot of the menu after you right click on Model in Project browser?

 

Fyi, the attached is a screenshot of MotionView 14.0 with Auto Entities option.

When i first open MView the MBD tools are already chosen(in BOLT) whereas Hyperworks(default) should have been.

When i have first installed the programm i was able to add autoentities and insert tyres,but when i closed the programm this choice had disappeared and it was not appear never again!

the same happens with HW12...

Is there a chance than path director or something like that is wrong??
