Can someone help me on how to obtain a .grid file from my topology study for the OSSmooth tool?

    Hi .grid files are helpful for shape and topography optimizations and are created when topography or shape optimization is performed.

    Hi Prakash,

     

    I understand but when I carry out a topology optimisation no .grid file is generated?
