Preview mesh motion doesn’t show the expected mesh

      Typically, to use “Preview Mesh Motion” for a Moving/Dynamic Mesh (MDM) case in ANSYS Fluent, you first use “Display Mesh” to select the surfaces to show. With ANSYS Fluent 18.0 new display objects were introduced that can be accessed from the tree. Using these new display objects for the mesh can give unexpected results for previewing the MDM mesh motion. “Preview Mesh Motion” always uses the settings of the legacy “Display Mesh” that can be accessed from the ribbon “Setting Up Domain” or from the tree “Results > Graphics > Mesh”. For more details refer to the attached document and video.
