I believe the key wording is under the “Specifications and Limitations” section in the above documentation link:
- Named Selections (face-, node-, and elemental-based) transfer from the upstream system.
It does not include edge named selections. But there is a method to get it to work. Since the above mentions nodal named selections, you can right click on the edge named selection to “Create Nodal Named Selection”:
Now in the downstream Model properties, turn on “Create Geometry Edge Components”:
It will remake the edge named selection from the nodal named selection, and give it the same name.
