Duplicate BCs using WB

Hi,

I remember from that I saw somewhere in the past that when I impose a duplicate BC to a node - Ansys WorkBench automatically removes the duplicate BC.
Ill try to explain:

If I use a symmetry BC on a symmetry plane, and some nodes in this plane are shared with a "fixed" BC, this means I have some DOFs on these nodes that are "duplicate" on both the symmetry BC and the fixed BC. From what I remember, WB automatically "fixes" this issue and eliminates the "double" DOF constraints.

Hope I explained myself correclty.

Is this right?

Thanks.
