Ok, found my error -i guess, i should import in step (5) the objects without being copied/ subtracted. So, when the largest object is only left in step (5) there is no hole due to the smallest (subtracted) geometry.  Importing the mesh from gmsh will automatically create this subdomain. (i,e the copied/ subtracted domains are important for the gmsh but not for re-importing in step(5).)

When saved as a script obviously it is calling the .step file, without being possible to modify the dimension parameters. This is important for my study since i want to loop the geometry and optimize,  by coupling to another matlab script, the outer dimensions. FEATool is perfect since i have not to call any other software and makes it faster and easier to handle. But is there a way to perform the meshing in subdomains as explained above, without calling a step file or gmsh, but only with using the geometry tab from FEATool gui/script?
