Hello communities,

Shell Elements in model without geometry.

How to select nodes by edge at edges (see the red line in pic) where the angle between its two face (A and B) is too small / slick ?

Is there an angle setting or anything like that in preference or anywhere like there so that the selection can treat the red line as an edge?

Thanks in advance.

    Here is the preference to set the mesh angle:

    Thank you Ben. That does work on elements selection by face. 

    But on nodes selection by edge, that angle seems making no difference (see in the attachments mp4 file). 

    The fem is also attached with the wanted nodes in a grid set named "ToSelectByEdge".
