Mass flow and pressure gradient not available in periodic conditions dialog box

      Hello,

      I am trying to set a specific pressure gradient in my vof model. I found in the user's guide that there is a place once periodic boundaries are set to set up mass flow and pressure gradient in the periodic conditons dialog box. This can only be done using pressure based solver, which I am using. When I open my periodic conditions box there are no settings available, only changing from rotationally or translationally periodic. How can I get the other settings to appear? 

       

      For reference the settings I am looking for per the guide:

      Hello,

      Double click on Boundary Conditions in the Outline. Then in the Task Page, you will find the option for Periodic Conditions. I think this is what you might be looking for.
