Hi all,

I tried looking around for a previous post on this issue but I couldn't find anything.

I have recorded a macro in Star-CCM+. In this macro I create a block, split it by patch and rename surfaces (ie. Inlet, Outlet, etc.). I see in the macro that each surface is given a specific ID number.

The issue arises when I run the macro again, the surfaces are given different ID numbers every time a new Star-CCM+ file is created so the Macro can not rename them as it does not find them.

Is there any way to rename surfaces without using this ID number or is there a way to make sure that the ID number is the same every time?

Thanks in advance,

Jack
