    Hello mustaphos,

     

    Is the variable used to define a medium? Are you able to provide the model so that we can take a look?

    the variables are only used to create named points.

    also, i can not change the named points.

    Previously i can change these variables. i had some work on my project about meshing.

    Now i am trying but i can not change these variables which i used to create named points.

    sorry to bother.

    i deleted tmp files inside my work folder and it works now.

    those who get the same error can try this fix.

    I don't think I have ever heard of something like this. The best suggestion I have is that you provide the model so that we can take a look.

    I'm glad you found a solution. It is a rather interesting solution - it doesn't make sense to me, but I'm glad it works for you.

    it doesn't make sense to me too since i did not use these variable in any other place.

    just used them to create named points.

    interesting...
