The length of the beam can be changed with a parameter. In Ansys mechanical at the ends of the beam i support the beam using remote displacements.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If i define the length of the beam to lets say 5000mm and insert the remote displacements on the face the X,Y and Z coordinates are inserted correctly. but when i change the parameter of the geometry to lets say 3000mm the X,Y and Z coordinate do not update. I have tried making the coordinates a parameter aswell and using expressions but it doesnt seem to update.<\/p>\n<p>How can i define my supports to scale with my geometry automatically?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"wp-colorbox-image cboxElement\" href=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/11-02-2024-1707665068-Screenshot1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/11-02-2024-1707665068-Screenshot1.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"wp-colorbox-image cboxElement\" href=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/11-02-2024-1707665083-screenshot2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/11-02-2024-1707665083-screenshot2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1188\" height=\"606\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"wp-colorbox-image cboxElement\" href=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/11-02-2024-1707665168-Screenshot3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/11-02-2024-1707665168-Screenshot3.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-350432","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-ansys-design-modeler","topic-tag-beam","topic-tag-parameter","topic-tag-remote-displacement"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["338979","170445"],"_bbp_author_ip":["168.143.243.24"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["848"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_edit_lock":["1707746278:220423"],"_bbp_topic_id":["350432"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27796"],"_bbp_engagement":["170445","338979"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["351550"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["351550"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-02-15 01:13:38"]},"test":"m-hekersgsstaalwerken-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/350432","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/350432\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":350814,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/350432\/revisions\/350814"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=350432"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
