The .cfx file stores mesh transformations generated from previous actions. These mesh transformations aren’t included in the ccl when exported fom CFX-Pre. You can see these transformations when using the following command: cfx5dfile RotationBug.cfx -read-pre-state > test.ccl To see more about this command, type in “cfx5dfile -help” from Tools->Command Line from the CFX Launcher (see attached cfx5dfile.txt). To remove these transformation commands from the .cfx file, you can do the following: 1.) In CFX-Pre, read in in RotationBug.cfx. 2.) Under File->Export, export the entire ccl to a file. Close CFX-Pre 3.) Start a new CFX-Pre session. Go to File->New Case. 4.) Go to File->Import Mesh. Select RotationBug.cfx for the mesh file. 5.) Go to File-Import CCL. Select the CCL that was just exported. Save the .cfx file Mesh rotations should now work as expected.
