Hello:

I am meshing a cuboid without recombination in surfaces or volumes.


I use Transfinite AlternateLeft Surfaces with Transfinite Lines with odd number 
of nodes so I obtain a bi-symmetric surface mesh with all triangle elements 
without all nodes on the boundary of the surface. Then I define the Transfinite 
Volume and call <Mesh 3;>


The volume gets meshed but some surface elements do not coincide with the 
volume elements' faces. This gives me problems afterwards when I define 
boundary conditions over surfaces and the solver checks if that boundary 
element is the face of a volume element.


Attached is a simple script with many combinations which do not work as I 
expect. I would expect to get either all tets or all prisms with at least one 
surface with all triangles so I can join that to a fully unstructured pure tet 
volume. Only one method tested works but produces tets, hexas and pyramids.


Sincerely,
