Ok, just tried it. What I get is: 1) From tools->statistics: 24122 Nodes, 124740 elements
2) In mesh file V2: 22689 nodes, 147030 elements 3) In mesh file V4: 24092 nodes, 147030 elements. The number of elements is ok (the one in the mesh file includes elements of type 2), but there are still perhaps some inconsistencies in the number of nodes...? -----Messaggio originale----- Da: Christophe Geuzaine [mailto:cgeuza...@uliege.be] Inviato: giovedì 30 agosto 2018 14:44 A: Alessandro Vicini Cc: gmsh@onelab.info Oggetto: Re: [Gmsh] Mesh file format v4 > On 30 Aug 2018, at 13:21, Alessandro Vicini <alessandro.vic...@sitael.com> > wrote: > > > Ok, thanks. > > At present, is it possible to know in advance which are the nodes not used in > elements, or is it necessary to look at the elements connectivity list?
