No, I'm afraid the previous comments still apply. > And by the way, what would you say is a good "solid modeler"? I've had success using FreeCAD or BRL-CAD with Gmsh, though there are other packages out there that I haven't tried that might be as good or better. As D. C. said, anything you can export STEP from is good, but even anything that can only export STL is usable: just export one STL file per Physical Surface and define the contained volume in Gmsh. _______________________________________________ gmsh mailing list [email protected] http://www.geuz.org/mailman/listinfo/gmsh
