Hi,
I want to transfer my 3D-truss model from ansys-classic to workbench as an .igs file. When i open igs file in workbench, i can not define cross-section of the line body. How can I give the cross-section value of the line body?

Thanks in advance
Burtek
 
Dear Burtek

You'll need DesignModeler do assign this cross-section.
In the iges file only the geometrical data for creating the line is stored not cross section data.
 
Thanks ansysfreak,
now i know how i can define the cross-section. first i must define a cross-section from " Consept " and then i can give defined cross-section for the line body.
