Samcef environment
Non-ASCII character support (Simcenter Samcef)
In the Simcenter Samcef environment, you cannot define entities or files names with non-ASCII characters when you solve a model or when you import one. You can only use alphanumeric characters.
In addition, the full path name of the directory where you solve your model (or import a model from) can only contain ASCII characters, excluding the following ones:
" % & ' ) * , / : < = > ? \ |
