Problems reading AcuSolve resultfiles

In Altair Hyperworks CFD 2022.1 I can not create Boundary Groups in the Post processing.

I have three crossections that I have calculated. And previously I could select each crossection to create a Boundary Group and then I could read out the (for example) the frictional force in X, Y or Z for the group of surfaces. Somehow I can not select the surfaces of the individual crossections, but only the surfaces of the three crossections combined. 

What I need to know, is the frictional force (in X) for each different crossection. Therefore I'm quite hopeless, since I've put a lot of runnig time into it.

Is there a solition for this issue?

 

Thanks in advance

    This might be a good case to submit as a support ticket via your AltairOne account - so you can maybe schedule a meeting and share the screen.

    Not sure if the behavior will be any different for your particular case in the latest release 2022.2, but it might be worth a try.

    Did you create individual Surface Monitors (Surface Outputs) for those sections - independent of the boundary condition assignments?  You can also try creating a new Boundary Collection by Surface Outputs (if you did create the monitors).

    I did, up and till now there was no solution yet. They send it to the development-team. The strange thing is, few months ago it did work.

    I tried the things you suggested, didn't work unfortunately. Thanks anyways! I try version 2022.2, might work.
