  3. When trying to import my model GAMBIT geometry into SpaceClaim I get the following error: ‘Attach failed; Geometry Interface not found; no compatible interface found for this file type’ error. There is also no GAMBIT import option under the file types?

      GAMBIT geometry files are now no longer supported for import into ANSYS from release 2019 R1, this is documented in the following release notes: https://ansyshelp.ansys.com/account/secured?returnurl=/Views/Secured/corp/v193/ai_rn/cad_relnotes.html To be able to bring you GAMBIT files into ANSYS, install a version of the software prior to 2019 R1. You will then be able to import your GAMBIT geometry, save the SpaceClaim (or DM) file and then open that saved file in a more recent version of ANSYS.
