Hello Community,

is it possible to edit the settings for the quality check of the mesh? Not just for a specific solver I want to do it individually. For example: aspect ratio < 3 ; warpage < 10 etc. I want to see the bad elements by using the qualityindex button.

Thanks in advance.

    olegzeiler,

    You can change the quality criteria used by the Quality Index (QI) panel.

    Go to the third page of the QI panel. Click on edit criteria…

    Clicking this button opens a new window: the criteria file editor. Use this to modify the criteria used by the Quality Index panel.

    You can edit each of the numerical values displayed in the editor - Aspect ratio, skew warpage etc

    You can also choose whether or not to use each check for element quality criteria by checking or clearing the checkboxes for each quality check listed. (Click advanced criteria table to access more settings for each check)
