Parametrizing geometry position in ANSYS Discovery – solids vs. cut-outs

      Hi,

      I’m working in ANSYS Discovery and want to parametrize the angle of a guide vane inside a fluid volume.

      If I create the vane as a separate solid, I can parametrize its position. But if I create it as a cut-out (subtraction) in the fluid domain, I can only adjust it with Move/Rotate, which doesn’t seem to be parametrizable.

      Is it possible to parametrize such cut-outs directly, or do I need to control them via a sketch dimension (e.g. angle) instead?

      Thanks!
