How to open abaqus contact manager?
https://2021.help.altair.com/2021/hwdesktop/hm/topics/user_interface/utility_menu_abaqus_contact_manager_start_t.htm
This is the documentation on how to open the abaqus contact manager. But I cannot find the 'contact manager' in the utility manager. There is no such button in there. I can open the contact browser from the tools menus. And I have made sure that Im using abaqus user profile. Why is there such a inconsistency between the software and the documentation. someone please help. Am i missing something ?

Thank you for your reply. I guess the documentation/tutorial is rendered completely useless then. It really makes it difficult for beginner learners in such a situation.

The documentation has been correctly updated in the later versions.
The contact browser information will be relevant for any version after 2020.

This tutorial still asks me to open the contact manager. Nowhere does it mention that it has been removed. Thanks.

I would recommend looking at the Youtube channel as these tutorials point to the Legacy Interface anyways
