I've designed a microstrip-based power divider. I have the 3d cad drawings(step & IGES)for PCB enclosure.
I want to simulate and analyze the S-parameters of Power divider with enclousre using HFSS. There are two options in HFSS. 1. HFSS 2. HFSS 3D layout. I have used both but none of them helped me with my simulation.

In HFSS, I was able to import the 3d PCB Layout file (.step) as well as enclosure but unable to add thin film resistors or any resistor.
How to add a resistor or impedance boundary at the resistor location?

In HFSS 3D layout mode, I was able to add resistors but unable to import PCB enclosure.

Please suggest me how to analyze power divider with adding resistor models and PCB enclosure.
I'm attaching an image of PCB for your reference (green ones are resistors).
