Information regarding RBE2 Spider option in 2024 student version

Hello Team,
I am currently trying my hands on flexible bodies analysis. I have been following few videos and they all suggest to click on an option called as "Create RBE2 spiders" but in my student version of 2024, it is disabled and I have tried to look for help in discussion but I could not found any thread regarding this problem.
Can someone tell me is it a glitch or is there something which was wrong during software download?

Hi @Sharma_rahul,
The "Create RBE2 Spiders" option will take you to a new HyperMesh instance to add the entities, so is it possible you do not have HyperMesh installed?
Hope this helps!

Hello @GTT Adam,
Thank you for your reply.
Hypermesh is installed and works well in my system. I wonder whether or not this option is no longer available in student version.

Hi @Sharma_rahul,
That may be the case, but it could also be due to whatever file you have selected for the input.
If you open a new session of MotionView and open the FlexPrep Tool, is the option still greyed out?
Hope this helps!
