Pointwise join problem

travis.moulding · December 6, 2011, 16:27

I am trying to join multiple domains together in pointwise and for the life of my I cannot get it to work. I select the two damains I would like to join, click Edit > Join and I get the following error Error: usage (argument 4)

w: DomainUnstructured join? -reject rejectVar? domains. My join tolerance is set at the default of 0.001.

any thoughts?

Hi Travis.

I don't recognize that error message at all and don't think the tolerance is the issue. Possible problems: one domain is used in a block and the other isn't (or is used in another block), one domain is structured and the other is unstructured, the domains don't actually share a connector, the structured domains don't match along their entire edge, etc.

My suggestion is to contact our technical support team at support@pointwise.com so they can investigate. Include the Pointwise version number in your email.

Best Regards
