    Hello, Nithin.

    Do you already have another manually declare rivets in your model? The warning indicates that there's an existing rivet in the same zone where you want to import a new one.

    Make sure the existing rivets are not close to each other in a radius of 5-10 mm to each other, try and reduce the rivet diameter before importing the .csv to see if that works.

    Some recommendations:

    • Check if there are not other rivets in the same zone (or close) whose radius could collide with the imported rivet.
    • Create extra coordinates to check if this situation repeats for all of them or only for particular coordinates.
    • Try to reduce the number of decimals in the Y coordinate.

    Let me know if this works.

    Best,

    R.
