[FAQ]

If one add or modify a Named Selection after solve, it won’t work because the Named Selection is stored in the result file, so one need to define all Named Selections (components) prior to solving. (A workaround is to write out the ds.dat and open it in a new Mechanical APDL session; then copy the file.db to the solver directory and add a RESUME command – this way, the database file (file.db) contains the modified Named Selection which can be read in not from the result file but from the database file via RESUME command.)
