Hi, SolidWorks community,

I hope my question is not a bother because this is my first time using this forum.

I imported geometry to my Solidworks and it gave me an error mentioning,
"Reference bodies for the mirror feature are missing. Edit the feature to select the bodies". I tracked the error as it was Mirror 11 but I do not know how to rectify it and when I click on Mirror11, it does not show me which part it is so I am unable to find where specifically the error lies.

I think it is a surface gap error because when I uploaded this geometry to Ansys as a .igs file and tried to create an enclosure, it gave me an error.

Can you please help me how to fix this?

Thank you so much

Did you intend to upload a file? Unless I'm just missing it...

oh sorry! Yeah.. the file is attached to the post now.

Update: I tried re-mirroring the whole geometry, and for some reason, it worked all right in SolidWorks but as soon as I reuploaded it to Ansys, it gave the same error while making the enclosure. The bodies are not connected.

I'm not a surfacing guy, so I can't offer a solution, but I can tell you the part is full of discontinuities that will cause headaches.

..go back to the beginning..?
