Right; but doesn't that only work for a serial mesh? >> (Does PointLocator work for ParallelMesh?) > > It should (which is not the same as saying it does...) with one > exception: you'll have to enable_out_of_mesh_mode(), and if you try to > locate a point that's on a remote element then you'll just get NULL > back. OK; then this also wouldn't work for ParallelMesh. Is there any way to find the (possibly remote) element that contains a particular position? -- Boyce ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Forrester Wave Report - Recovery time is now measured in hours and minutes not days.
