Thickness Alteration Issue When Converting STL to Solid in SpaceClaim

      .I encountered an issue while using the SpaceClaim module in ANSYS 2024 R1. Specifically, I imported a .stl skull model for steady-state thermal analysis. However, after converting the STL file into a solid, the model's thickness was unexpectedly altered and did not retain its original geometric dimensions.Since my analysis relies on accurate thickness data for thermal conduction simulation, this alteration significantly affects the validity of the results.

      Hello
       In SpaceClaim Options > STL, please see if you can manaully set the desired Units and adjust the Import As method.
