[ GiDlist ] How to mesh the facets of a parallelepiped mirro

[Enrique Escolano]

Two equal surfaces can be forced to generate the same mesh by means of a "
contact "
(see Geometry-Create-Contact-Separated volumes)
This create prismatic elements between the two surfaces.
You can create 3 contacts between opposite surfaces, and mesh the
parallelepiped volume.
After you must delete or ignore the prisma elements generated for the
contacts, and to consider only the tetrahedral.
You can separate in a layer the volume contacts to separate the prisms of
the tetrahedrals.

I'm using GID-5 to mesh a parallelepiped with tetrahedrons. I need the
surface meshes on the side surfaces to be like mirrors of each other. In
other words, each edge on the side surface should have its mirror image
on the opposite side surface. Is it possible to do?
Thanks,
Alex.
