Using Named Selections in Ansys

You can create named selections in the SpaceClaim Groups panel and then use these groups as named selections in Ansys.

See Using Groups to Drive Changes in Ansys for information about using groups to make changes to the design in Ansys.

To create a named selection:

1. Select the objects you want to include in the group.

   You can use the Selection panel to select objects in the same part that are similar or related to the object that is currently selected.

2. Click Create NS in the Groups panel.

3. (Optional) Rename the group.

   It is helpful to rename the groups with a prefix that tells you the group's type, because named selections and driving dimensions are grouped together in the structure in Ansys.

4. Send your change to Ansys.
