Functional Generative Design: General

The General options let you customize properties for Functional Generative Design.

This page discusses:

Global UI

Add advanced options in action bar and dialog boxes (restart mandatory)
Adds various options in both menus and action bar. You need to restart the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to be access the options.

this option is cleared.

Action Bar

Add Analysis Setup commands to the Action Bar
When selected, adds all SIMULIA commands available in the Exploration Assistant command to the Analysis Setup section of the action bar.

By default, this option is cleared.

Functional Region

Allow face selection
When selected, displays the selection filter in the Functional Regions.

By default, this option is cleared.

Compute Shape

Keep all iterations for Topology Optimization
When selected, keeps all the intermediate steps instead of just the last one. Note that it can potentially generate a lot of data.

By default, this option is cleared.

When selected, keeps all the intermediate steps instead of just the last one. Note that it can potentially generate a lot of data.

By default, this option is selected.

Concept Shape

Use Ordered Geometrical Set if Hybrid Body are allowed
When selected, creates an hybrid body containing an ordered geometrical set itself containing the created splitting surfaces. When cleared, the splitting surface set is a geometrical set and is created outside the concept shape body.

By default, this option is cleared.

Body to Partition

Use copy with link for reference design partition
When selected, specifies whether you want to copy or not the reference design in another body.

By default, this option is selected.
