Re: Edit case issue

This is the command I see when I click edit

Code: Select all

Successfully wrote OpenFOAM case to folder B:/CFD/freecad/Newfolder
Please edit the case input files externally at: B:/CFD/freecad/Newfolder\case333

Re: Edit case issue

Sorry, I thought it did, but tried a new case and have the same problem again - nevermind, it's not a big problem, thanks for looking into it!
