Named Selection don’t properly show up in Ansys Fluent Local Sizing

  Hello, I am working on a project where I'm generating cylinders of different sizes in SpaceClaim (1-12mm). For this, I have written a script which puts the surfaces of the cylinders in groups called 0-1mm etc. In SpaceClaim, this works well. However, when I'm transferring these to Fluent to create a mesh, the named selections don't show up the way they did in SpaceClaim. When there's only one cylinder in a group, it works well, but when there's more than one, they split up seemingly at random in groups called solid.1 etc. When I delete the Named selection key and import my SpaceClaim file in Workbench and from there first to Meshing and then to Ansys, the named selections show up correctly. The problem seems to be only for the Local Sizing task. I'd greatly appreciate some help, thanks in advance

  Hello Katharina,
  can you show how your Named Selections are set up in SpaceClaim and a screenshot of what you see in Fluent Meshing?
