FEMAP: "By Face" selection of elements
FEMAP: "By Face" selection of elements
(OP)
Hello,
I'm a new user of FEMAP v10.3.1 and I would like to select plate elements "by face" like I do in Hypermesh (selecting one element of a face, hitting "by face" and then having all the elements of the face automatically selected).
On FEMAP I've found some kind of "by face" selection tool by following the path "entity selection > pick^", but I'm unable to select anything by using this function.
I would be grateful is someone could help me regarding that!

Note that in the Face Select dialog there is an angle tolerance that controls what Femap considers to be the adjacent element plane from element to element. The default is 20 degrees, so if you want Femap to include elements around less acute angles in the model, but not right angles say, then set the tolerance to be something slightly less than 90 degrees.
