Design Adviser analysis

A Design Adviser analysis shows areas in the part that are likely to cause problems during other analyses.

You can use the Design Adviser analysis to check the geometry of a model if it is large and complex, to find fine features such as text and fillets, or areas of thicknesses which may cause problems with other analyses.
