STL format is only defined for triangles, it does not include tetrahedra or any other three-dimensional elements. This is not a shortcoming of Gmsh. I'm not familiar with Maya, but maybe it accepts other input formats than STL? _______________________________________________ gmsh mailing list [email protected] http://www.geuz.org/mailman/listinfo/gmsh
