Export OpenFOAM Casefile

Hello,

I am trying to export my FEATool 2D model to an OpenFoam case file, but I keep getting the error "openfoam: spaces in case directory not supported."

I believe this is an error in the OpenFOAM case I am trying to create, but I was hoping for an explanation on how to fix this error or steps on how to create the OpenFOAM directory to export this model.

Thank you.

As the error message indicates OpenFOAM does not support or work well with blank space " " characters in paths and file names. So for example please use something like

C:\of_cases\test-1

instead of

C:\of cases\test 1
