Hi All,

I'm modelling some plastic parts with several screws for connections. I would like to use the Virtual Bolt, but struggle to make it work with the screw boss geometry. 
I have made a small simplified geometry and tested the virtual bolt between two plates, with a successful generation of the bolt. However when I modify one part to have a boss design the bolt fails with the message:

“Impossible to mesh connection mesh part Virtual Bolt Connection Mesh.1.

No associated mesh found on geometric support:

Edge/Pad.1/PartBody/V23D Shape00242578 A.1/V23D Shape00242578 A.1

Check that support is meshed and has its FEM linked (for assemblies only).”

The documentation does not seem to mention boss design, but the virtual bolt detection does find the location. I’m curious if anyone made the virtual bolt work with bosses or if it’s unsupported? Anyone with experience on this?
