Description
Creates a FEM constraint for a fixed geometry entry by locking all 6 degrees of freedom of the selected object.
Usage
- There are several ways to invoke the command:
- Press the FEM ConstraintFixed button.
- Select the Model → Mechanical Constraints → Constraint fixed option from the menu.
- In the 3D-view select the object the constraint should be applied to, which can be a vertex (corner), edge, or face.
Limitations
You cannot mix object-types within the same constraint. Use one fixed constraint for each object type.
