Sketches as geometry source

[joc]

Allow using sketch content in defining loading geometry, as well as for constraint definition.

As of now I ussually create aditional parts with the loading area shape and place them, then I apply the load on them.

I would be much simpler (saving computing power during the FEA) using sketches to define geometry both for the loading area and the loading direction.

Same apllies to constraints.

For the maximum level of detail, sometimes it could help defininf contacts 😉

Have you tried using the split command to create surface regions for FEA loading and constraints?

Sorry for the late answer and thanks for the suggestion, It is the best way to go. I do it.
