Thank you for the reply. After applying the Extract Edges Filter I see the internal mesh, but as a wireframe no matter which display mode I choose. Also when I apply the Mesh Quality filter, the mesh is not colored according to the quality. Obviously I still do something wrong...

Apply the extract edges, shrink, or glyph filters to see internal elements and nodes.

To this end, I have saved the mesh in vtk format and opened it with ParaView. The problem is that I don't see any volume element (or their nodes) in the display, no matter what mode (Points, Wireframe, ...) I choose. If I try "Volume", I get the message: "Cannot volume render since no point (or cell) data available." I have attached a small example. As far as I see with a text editor, there *are* tetrahedra (elements with 4 nodes) in the file. So why doesn't ParaView show them? I use ParaView 3.89.0-RC3 (32 bit) under Windows XP. Thank you for a helpful hint... Matthias _____________________________________________________________________ ERBE Elektromedizin GmbH Firmensitz: 72072 Tuebingen Geschaeftsfuehrer: Christian O.
