Hello

I have a problem sometimes when I postprocess models with quadrilateral
elements (structured mesh). Every element is divided in two triangles (i.e.
there is a diagonal drawn through every element) and only one of these
triangles is visible. Anyone who has any idea of how to solve this problem?
I am using GID 7.2 and 7.4.4b on Win XP. My graphic card is a NVIDIA
Geforce3 Ti200.



regards

Try to deactivate the graphic card acceleration from the Operating System (Screen properties-Advanced options-Solve problems...)
Search also in the web page of your card if there are actualized drivers for your graphic card.

The conectivities of your cuadrilaterals are the correct ones? they should be
counterclockwise (http://www.gidhome.com/support/gid_16.subst#cuad4.gif)
