5.1. Introduction

The Insert menu contains a list of objects that can be used as tools to analyze the mesh and geometry (although they are not necessary for mesh generation).

When you select any of the objects from the Insert menu, a dialog box appears in which you can either accept the default name or type a new one for the object (in this case a plane). The name should be different from any current object of the same type to avoid overwriting the existing object. Ansys TurboGrid does not enable you to create different types of objects with the same name.

Click OK or press Enter to open the relevant object editor. The object does not exist in the database until you click Apply in the object editor. For information on how to create objects from the command line see Object Creation and Deletion in the TurboGrid Reference Guide
