Hello,
Currently i am working on a big assembly in Cosmos, off course using the shell method. In Cosmos you need to define the shell thickness but it uses the shell as a midplane. In a assembly it makes it necessary to keep a distance between some parts because of this and drawing the shell as a midplane. This makes drawing more difficult and most of all, time consuming. Especially when defining contact/gaps it is more difficult to get a correct model compared to parts that are fixed together.
Why isn’t it possible for Cosmos to choose the direction of the shell thickens, inner or outer thickness, just like in SolidWorks. This saves a lot of time in drawing and defining contacts.
