Hello

i made a simple rectangular in ICEM and

created block in 2d planer as following pictures.

after that, the block is produced but it is not fit with rectangular shape

but stretch to normal direction with infinite length

how can i fix it?

Hi Anzel,

there probably are a few solutions.

Use associate edge to curve with the snap vertices option. First associate the short edge in the front to a curve. Then select the infinitive edges and select the respective curves. That way the far points should be moved automatically to the geometry.

Another way is trying to create the geometry in the same plane the 2d blocking is initialized. Though i hadn't had such a problem so far.

With regards,
Sebastian
