Hello,

I am trying to import some CAD directly from hypermesh and I want to control the mesh coarseness, but MotionView doesn't give me this choice. Is it due to the student's license ?

    If I recall correctly, this option is used to import a FE mesh into MV, coming from a .hm file. So it is expecting a mesh already.

    Yes I tried to choose it with a .hm file as an input file, but still I didn't had that choice. Is it because I am using a 'rigid bodu mesh'?

    does your .hm model have mesh and properties/materials on it?
