Thank you, it works! I just didn’t see it since I expected this menu entry to be on a higher level in the tree… I agree that scripting a .geo file is often better, especially if you don’t mind to “program” your workflow, and if automation and reproducibility is an issue. Here I want to demonstrate the workflow to a colleague who is used to work with a GUI (e.g. a CAD system), so I prefer to start by using the GUI. He can always move to .geo scripts if he likes…

[image.png] While the GUI is very nice, I personally prefer using a geo file and opening it in the GUI, since it is a bit more reproducible for tricky models.

I want to do the following using the gmsh GUI: 1. Import a STEP file containing several bodies 2. remove duplicate entities, i.e. the duplicated interface(s) between the bodies 3. make a conformal 3D mesh, i.e. adjacent bodies should be connected so that heat can flow between them. This can be achieved with commands in a geo file, invoking the OpenCASCADE toolbox and the coherence command. Can it also be done using only the GUI? More specifically, how do I invoke the OpenCASCADE toolbox from the GUI? Thanks for helpful hints.
