Dear Bruno, You will find attached the resulting grids. While I originally expected to find new divisions only along the x-direction, your previous answer tells me it actually cuts in some local coordinate (whatever that might be). In this case, what is the best way to refine the cylinder in a single direction? I tried adding an if(cell->boundary_id() == 0) before setting the flag, but it did not really help. The mesh is still being refined in all directions.
I ask this because I plan to do some transformations on this cylinder, to turn it into a coil. In this case, the final result is much better if there are enough cuts in the x-axis.
