This definitely looks like an improvement over the current code. Seems to work on my initial tests, too; I'll commit it to svn. Works on the initial tests where it's expected to work, anyway. Does the newest VTK support triquadratic hexes yet? vtk_io.C seems to think that VTK_BIQUADRATIC_QUAD is relatively new, and it would be nice if we didn't have to die with an error in the 3D case. --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Software Download: Index, Search & Analyze Logs and other IT data in Real-Time with Splunk.
