Hello, I just wanted to make sure I am not missing something when I use the interior_parent of an Elem object. Basically I am using it in a sense that the interior_parent holds a reference to a "neighboring" higher dimension element. If this sounds correct, I'll continue its use.
However, I am also wondering if there is a way to set the interior_parent in a more "automatic" way? That is, currently I have to specify which element will be the interior parent of an element, ensuring the selected element is at least 1 degree higher in dimension. Will this be automated such that when a method like *prepare_for_use* is called the interior parents will also be set? Given there is some complications if an element has the possibility of having more than one interior parent (like the example mesh in tests/mesh/mixed_dim_mesh_test.C). Or maybe there is different approach that I am missing to relate a lower dimension element, like an EDGE2, with a higher dimension element, like a QUAD4?
