Define Volume Mesh Local Settings

Use the Volume Mesh tool to define local volume mesh sizes on individual solids. You can also choose different volume mesh settings, such as defining layers on thin regions and quality controls.

These controls will not change the defined surface mesh controls; you must assign controls to solid body surfaces according to the sizes defined here.

  1. From the Mesh ribbon, Mesh Controls tools, click the Volume Mesh tool.
