Hi,<\/p>\n

It has happened to me many times that I have a fully defined model (materials, mesh, contacts, etc.) and I need to make a change to a part of the geometry. I go to SpaceClaim, make the modification, and return to Workbench. I double-click on the model and click “Yes” when asked if I want to update the model. Sometimes it does it correctly, but other times it interprets that I have modified or added a lot of parts instead of the single part I changed. It messes up the parts I had previously grouped in folders in the geometry section, loses the contacts (I have disabled automatic generation), and even loses the mesh.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Why does this happen? Is there any way to fix it?<\/p>\n

P.S. I am using Ansys 2021 R1.<\/p>\n
