Hi
In DM or SC cad tools, just create surfaces of the 3D main/front faces (DM: use create Surf From Faces tool or in SC copy & paste those front faces in SC and delete the 3D parts afterwards both in DM or if you use SC) – make sure these new faces are in the xy plane (so z=0) and that you have deleted the 3D parts. Then switch your geometry properties (WB) to 2D and then go into mechanical.
All the best Erik
