Hello,

I modeled the following geometry in SolidWorks. It is basically a tube with some circles at the bottom, these circles where created with Parting Line option in SolidWorks. I did this so I can setup an inlet in this circles. However, when I import this geometry to Design Modeler or SpaceClaim this circles do not show up. I´m not sure if there is an option in either of these programs so this works out or if this type of surfaces does not work on Ansys. This was basically done to simplify my model and not do small tubes with a small mesh.

Were the circles in SolidWorks imprinted on the face of the solid?  That means you can click on the face of a small circle and a face that has all the holes in it. If so, then this would transfer into DM or SC the way you want.
