Yes, that should work. A quick note though, you might want to "Merge" the first file that creates the geometry in the second that rotates it in order to keep your reference file clean. An example is enclosed with this mail.

But following your suggestion what I can do from my external program is to add the lines: tmp[] = Physical Surface { xyz } ; Rotate { { 1. , 0. , 0. } , { 0. , 0. , 0. } , Pi/2. } { Surface { tmp[] } ; } to my .geo file and then generate the mesh, this should work...

Also, I don't understand what you are trying to achieve "from the command line". Is it that you generate geometry as a physical entity in one .geo file and want to rotate it afterwards ? If that is the case, I don't think this can actually work because there is no input argument that you could use from the command line to specify with Physical Entity you wish to transform. This at least will have to be defined somewhere in a .geo file.

Is there a way to apply them on physical entities instead? Thank > you. No, but you can get all the elementary entities making up a physical group using e.g. "Physical Line {tag}" (it returns a list), which you can then use in the transformation commands. > > Alessandro > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > gmsh mailing list > [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> > http://onelab.info/mailman/listinfo/gmsh -- Prof. Christophe Geuzaine University of Liege, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science http://www.montefiore.ulg.ac.be/~geuzaine Free software: http://gmsh.info | http://getdp.info | http://onelab.info _______________________________________________ gmsh mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> http://onelab.info/mailman/listinfo/gmsh
