  • Formatting was changed.
  • MSC Apex Generative Design might not visualize Non-Design Spaces using the Shape Quality “Preview”. The Non-Design Spaces are considered in the optimisation but because of the coarse resolution level of these iterations not visualized (fully). Choose another Shape Quality setting to run a complete optimisation and receive a full visualization.

  • MSC Apex Generative Design might generate different results while calculating in different unit systems due to inaccuracies/differences of decimal places.

  • MSC Apex Generative Design supports one solid using the User Interface. As a workaround the command line optimisation input can be influenced and multiple solids realised.

  • MSC Apex Generative Design supports one material for all spaces. As a workaround unsupported options can be added using the Advanced User Settings to define different materials.

  • "Restart" is not directly selectable in the User Interface but is available for the optimisation as an unsupported option using the Advanced User Settings. For more information have a look here.

  • MSC Apex Generative Design may ignore boundary conditions if a pressure load as well as other conditions are applied on the same surface. Pressure loads can only be applied on the specific surface where no other boundary conditions are active.

  • The simulation may fail using a remote solver due to the case sensitivity of the machine name.

  • You might not be able to zoom in the stress chart view in Post.

  • MSC Apex Generative Design might produce different results for the same model in different orientations.

  • The tessellation of exported STL-files might be very coarse.

  • MSC Apex Generative Design may not start up due to the presence of wide-characters in the program path. Please change the location of the program to a path without any wide characters.

  • While uninstalling MSC Apex Generative Design some files might not be removed.

  • MSC Apex Generative Design might generate results that use material outside of the Design Space. This only happens for small features and is depending on the chosen complexity. As a workaround the component generating this behaviour can be deactivated by writing the following command in the Advanced User Settings: MorphologicCorrection.

  • MSC Apex Generative Design will not consider Pressure Loads when activating the Advanced User Setting command: automaticFunctionalFacesDetection.positiveNondesignDirection=false. This combination of input is not supported by the algorithm. As a workaround the additional Advanced User Setting command can be deleted.

  • MSC Apex Generative Design might not consider the Event Specific Stress Goal order correctly. As a workaround an Event Specific Stress Goal for each Event needs to be set.
