Hi,

I was doing a simple 2D structural analysis, but when trying to combine APDL command (symmetry), it didn't work.

Also, when using commands for applying BC on lines, it didn't work.
This how i first make it:
DL,Line_Symm_x,,symm
DL,Line_Symm_y,,symm
SFL,Press_line,10

These commands didn't work, so instead i used these commands

D,Line_Symm_x,ux,0
D,Line_Symm_y,uy,0
SF,Press_line,10

Could someone explain to me why there is a difference in the commands, and why can't i use Symmetry command directly?
