We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi Julian,

Thanks for the screenshots. Can you check the Newton-Raphson residual plots and find out which are the problematic locations? Also, from the above screenshots it looks like you have some contacts with far open status. Please check those contacts and make sure that the pinball radius is big enough so that contact is detected.

Thanks,

Akshay Maniyar
