Hi all,

I desperately need to use the Edit Mesh > Pull(Extrude, Revolve) feature in Ansys Meshing, I've got the Version 2021R2 available at my workplace. How come it does not show up when I click Mesh Edit > Insert although it is mentioned in the users guide for my version ? Have I missed something ?


Kind Regards

Hi Lucas,
Could you perhaps try right-clicking on the mesh--> Insert--> Pull---> Extrude and rotate options will be available to you.

Hello Sampat,

that is precisely the problem. The Option for 'Pull' does not even appear in the drop down list...

Hi Lucas,
Thanks for the information. As far as I can understand, you can view the mesh edit option but the pull option doesn't highlight there. 
Are you able to see the Mesh Edit and pull options as I have highlighted in the image, please check. 


Will you please reseat the Ansys Once, as explained below? 

1.Please clear the %appdata% in your system. To do this, Open a file explorer and type %appdata% in the address bar. Locate the Ansys folder and rename it to Ansys.old.
Go to the Start Menu and open %temp% folder. Search for ‘.ansys’ folder and rename it to ‘.ansys.old’ then launch the application. 

2. Go to the Start Menu and open %temp% folder. Search for ‘.ansys’ folder and rename it to ‘.ansys.old’ then launch the application.

If the above method doesn't solve your issue, right-click on the mesh edit and show me the available options. Please share the screenshot of it. 

Regards,
Sampat
