2. Make sure the Surface Generation Method = User Defined Surfaces in the Slip Surface Options dialog.
3. Select Add User-Defined Surface from the toolbar or the Surfaces menu.
4. You will see the Add User Defined Slip Surface dialog. In the dialog, select an existing surface, enter a name and select OK.
