Diagnostics3 issues
Red-flag checks the card is run through before download — unit mismatches, physically-impossible values, solver-specific pitfalls. Each entry shows the problem and a fix hint.
Warnings2
G_MISSING
Shear modulus G₁₂ derived from E and ν, not measured directly.
Pick a measured shear-modulus row in the source picker if available.
BASIS_MIX
Yield uses A-basis; ultimate uses S-basis. Mixed-basis card.
Switch ultimate to A-basis for design allowables consistency.
Notes1
FATIGUE_REF
S-N curve emitted as comment block (Abaqus has no native fatigue card).

Source picker

Every property lists candidates with confidence, DOI, conditions, and basis. Pick the row the deck actually uses.

Live rendered card

Toggle a property or change its source and the rendered deck updates instantly. What you see is what you download.

Diagnostics first

Unit mismatches, Poisson out of range, missing G in orthotropic, basis mixing — caught before you hit download.
