Design Space Disappearing from File

Thomas Wolfe

When I reload my Inspire file, the design space disappears and I cannot get it back. Why does this happen, and can I recover the lost component? I have attached the model and a screenshot of what it should look like. The missing component is the one labeled "body" in the Model Tree.

Hi Thomas

I don't know where your design space went but I was able to recover the geometry by winding back the history to the beginning and creating a copy.

I then re-saved the model without results and imported it (rather than opening). This creates a clean model with no history just in case the issue was there.

I also noticed you had fastener optimisation turned on... as the loads are very high for the allowables this can result in poor optimisation results. I turned off and re-ran  to check and results look fine.

Cleaned up model created in version 2024 attached. Hope it helps.
