Simulation known issues
This is a selection of issues we are aware of being present in the 2026.0 release of Simulation Utility and/or Local Simulation.
Note: Issues being listed here but not listed for previous releases does not necessarily mean they were introduced with this release. They may have existed before and were just not listed then.
Simulation Utility GUI
| ANFB-3186 – When using a build plate STL in a part-scale powderbed simulation, a crash occurs if the results are filtered and then the Thermal Gradient result type is selected. |
| NC-15011 – Simulation crashes upon trying to simulate too many distinct and separate meshes at once. This is not typically encountered but may happen when using the import option Split support volumes with individual density on parts with individual bar supports, for example. There is no immediate workaround for this. Try to reduce the amount of individual meshes. For example, connect and merge their volumes, either into one volume or into few volumes that group many individual volumes. |
| ANFB-3259 – If Simulation Utility or the Local Simulation GUI was opened previously on a screen that is no longer available, trying to access dialogs like Solver settings and Mesh settings causes them to open on inaccessible screen space, resulting in the main window to apparently freeze. As a workaround, attempt to switch to extended or external-only modes using Win+P while the GUI appears frozen. This should bring the dialogs back into view. When they are, change their position briefly. This should open them properly on the remaining screen for the next session at the latest. |
