Ive been trying to find a way to create surface mesh of the 3D mesh ive done.

I did find this very old discussion on it but cannot use it in the 2023 Hypermesh version I am currently using -

Hello Adi,

This functionality is still available via Validate/Faces.

Please keep in mind you need to rename the ^faces component name.
Component starting with ^ will not be exported to the solver deck.

Thank you @Gunter. Did want to ask, does the ^ not import to the solver deck even if I make a Component and name it ^component 1?

Hello Adi,

Thanks for the reply.
Any component whose name begins with ^ will not be exported to the solverdeck.
