[GiDlist] copy and create mesh failed

[Aphrodite Kerylidis]

Hello,

I have installed the professional GID version 7.2 on
my linux Redhat 8.0 computer. Everything works fine
except when trying to copy and generate mesh in the
postprocessing mode. My postprocessing files are
written in the new format and I can open and visualize
my results. I can also copy the existing mesh and view
it, but I can NOT generate the copied new mesh
afterwards. If I try to do it, the whole program
always breaks down. I have now tried to utilize on my
other computer, which has installed Linux and Windows
2000 as well, older and newer versions of GID
(6.2,7.1,7.4.7), but in vain. What might be the reason
for this problem?
Thanks for any help.

Aphrodite

Hi:

I think I have had the same issues. I am usually using quadratic elements,
and during mesh operations in the postprocessing, in particular (but not
only) for extrusions, GiD bombs. Although there has been times when it
works (this is maybe also connected to displaying quadratic elements as
curves).

Try the latest beta (7.4.7b on Windows). It seems to be a lot more stable
in that department. It usually works for me, at least.

Hi,

What do you mean with 'generate mesh'?
Do you mean to use the 'create' option of the Utilities-copy window?
Can you send us an example and the exact steps you followed to get to error?
Have you tried the latest 7.4.9?
Thanks in advance
