  3. I am working in the V 19.0 ANSYS Mesher and have set up two Match Controls for my geometry. I am getting the error: “The mesh could not be generated because two faces adjacent to an edge have different match controls applied to them. To correct this, ensure that match control settings are the same for both adjacent faces.” It seems that I should be able to create this type of mesh. Is this a defect? Will it be addressed?

      ANSYS Meshing cannot yet handle this type of 2-way periodicity. The limitation is due to the way Match Controls are implemented. This is something we are working to rectify. This capability should be accessible in R 19.x or R 20.
