Hi,
In a pattern I have defined I get this warning. I have overlapping segments since I want to create a split. The split lines are not perpendicular. More like 45 deg. If I do not overlap I cannot connect the end nodes. Is there a better way?

Thanks,
Milind

It really depends on how long your lines are. Usually you can leave a small gap between the end of the segments, if they are long enough, with no appreciable change in the magnetic behavior of the structure. If instead the segments are thick and short, I'm afraid you need a more precise modelling, because probably your model isn't accurate anyway. You should use a set of segments with different lengths connected to common end nodes, re-constructing the junction between the angled parts.

Best Regards,
Enrico
