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 Niki,

If I lock the mesh, I no longer have the error, but the sweep does not work properly. As you can see from the screenshot you provided, changes to the geometry are not reflected in the simulation. This is fine when I sweep over the power, but is a problem when I want to sweep over the geometry (x span). You can see that the results do not change when I use the sweep method, but they do change when I change the x-span by hand. How can I solve this? Should I manually sweep over the length using a for-loop or can I lock/unlock the mesh during the sweep?

Result after Sweeping are the same:

I have manually adjusted the x-span in this result. So I would expect this result on the last sweep:

Thanks in Advance!
