Thank you, David.
That solved the problem.
Can I also uncheck those options when I run gmsh from the command line without
GUI? How?
yes, with
gmsh Sphere_1.brep -string
"Geometry.OCCFixSmallEdges=0;Geometry.OCCFixSmallFaces=0;"
Dave
Thanks
Jan

Hi Jan,
your sphere is so small that it has been automatically removed...
Go to Tools->Options->Geometry->General and uncheck "Remove small edeges in OCC models"
and "Remove small faces in..."
Regards,
Dave
