Matt, Thanks. I downloaded your files, and I'll
be looking at them shortly. An example of the
kind of data I am looking at is shown by the
included OpenDX script (my_2d_script). I am also 
attaching the corresponding *.dx 
(myFacesLoopsEdges.dx) file.

I run this script using:
 shell prompt>   dx -script
    OpenDX dx>   include "my_2d_script"

The example shows a triangular domain divided in 
four triangular elements. I want to show the
grid (element boundaries) and write the element
number at the center of each triangular element. 

This example is useful to visualize a variable 
computed at the middle of each element (for 
instance temperature).

I'll get back to you shortly with comments
about your files.

 Thanks again,

Sergio
