Hi experts,

 

Why do you think I have different colors for the mesh? I basically extruded the surface mesh.

    It could be a random color assignment issue. 

    Could you try two things. 

     - Hide all parts/solids and display them again. This will reset colors. 

    - if that does not help, try to close all HW / HWCFD session and open the .hm again. 

    If it persists, please let us know or upload the .hm file.

    Done with all of them. Nothing helps.

    It looks like sometimes the color/visualization doesn't properly synch with the proper parts after the extrusion process.  Try right-click 'Model' in the Part Browser, and Fix Database.  Does that make any difference?

    I also notice all three parts in the tree are assigned the same gray color.  You may also try assigning a different color to the different parts.

    Fix database does not help at all.

    After Fix Database - try changing the way the model is colored - using the Model Color icon at the bottom of the window
