[ICEM] Operation in progress bar not visible sometimes

leodan · July 31, 2023, 06:46

Hi everyone, sometimes the Operation in progress bar doesn't appear when trying to smoothen the mesh elements in ICEM CFD. It's not a grave issue, but sometimes when I'm trying to smoothen a large number of elements, this progress bar is the only indication that the process is going on and that the ICEM is not stuck in the background.
Is it something with my screen resolution or some settings I forgot to turn on(or off)?

In my 20 years of experience with ICEM, I have never ever observed something similar.
Did you see the same problem in older versions? Since ICEM is no longer maintained, it might not be able to keep up with latest updates of your operating system.

I have only used ICEM CFD in ANSYS 2020R2 for the past year. So I'm not sure about the previous releases. My PC is running Win 10 Pro, so there may be some inconsistency.
I have never tried to change the screen resolution to see if this issue persists. I will try that.
