Mesh Coordinate System

Ryan

New member
I am trying to mesh a model in FEM mode, to be exported to our structures group to be analyzed in Nastran. I have selected a current coordinate system that I would like the model to be meshed to. When the model meshes however, it meshes with respect to a different coordinate system. Is there any way to force the mesh to be in a specific coordinate system?<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><O:p></O:p>
<O:p></O:p>
In the attached picture, I am trying to get it to mesh with respect to MAIN_CS (green) but it picks the white coordinate system to mesh to. <O:p></O:p>


Any help would be appreciated.
