[ GiDlist ] Triangular element

Hi;

Thanks for the info to pin-point it out. Now I can generate the surface mesh
using TRIANGLE type.

BTW: I'm a new GID learner

Cheers
Binh

In addition to my last message, you can find the 'mesh' commands in the
following menu:

Meshing - Mesh Criteria - No Mesh - Volumnes (and you have to select the
volumes)

Meshing - Mesh Criteria - Mesh - surfaces (and you have to select the
surfaces)

Regards,
J

Hi;

I have had trouble in generating mesh on a surface. I
realised that in order
to generate triangular elements (instead of tetrahedra by
default), the
surface has to be structured.
Anyway, I'm wondering if I could produce a triangular mesh
surface on a
sphere or a cylinder or any enclosed volumes.
