Overwrite Automatic Contact Conditions When Adding Manual Contact Conditions in Simulation

Overwrite Automatic Contact Conditions When Adding Manual Contact Conditions in Simulation

Currently, when users add a manual contact condition that overlaps with an automatically generated one, Inventor shows a warning but does not provide a direct way to manage the conflict.

We suggest the following improvement:
If a manual contact condition is added that matches an existing automatic contact, Inventor should:

  • Display a warning message,
  • Offer a button to overwrite the existing automatic contact condition, or
  • Provide a shortcut to navigate directly to the existing contact condition for editing.

This would streamline the workflow and reduce the need to manually search for and resolve contact conflicts.
