Here's the trick: rather than Derek's "find initial n_elem, only renumber above that", we do "check elem->level() when renumbering, only renumber above 0". Then we can support crazy initial numberings (with the caveat that SerialMesh memory usage becomes O(max_elem_id)...), and we even get static ids after element deletion! --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
