As Abel explained, you can split GiD quadrilaterals into 2 triangles (without add nodes) or 4 triangles (adding a new central node), but probably you don't need to use this tool for your background mesh. Your own solver can write the new background mesh file writting your quadrilaterals as two trian...

Your GiD version can't change the line's size. Can try to use the ps/eps vectorial, or the .png format that use image compression without loss of quality (jpeg can decrease the quality) In any case, your images are not so bad as I expected, I think that your problem is increasing when you resize the...

from a console you can start gid with gid -b yourbatchfile and inside GiD you can read a batch file with the command Mescape Files BatchFile yourbatchfile ----- Original Message ----- From: Rodrigo Augusto To: gidlist at gid.cimne.upc.edu Sent: Wednesday, July 30, 2008 4:23 PM Subject: [GiDlist] Wha...

Maybe the internal higherentity counter is wrong, use Utilities-Repair model to fix it.

you can get information of the condition 'Surfac_Load' with GiD_Info conditions Surface_Load mesh the returned information includes the element number , the local face number (for conditions over face elements) and the applied condition values knowing the element and the face number, you can know it...

You can't use an string as content of a .bas variable, only integers or reals are allowed. For special thinks, you can invoke from the bas file a *tcl procedure, that can be defined in a yourproblemetype.tcl file, Tcl is a powerful scripting language, you can read information about the standard Tcl ...

I assumed that you have defined the 'Flux' condition as CONDTYPE: over surfaces CONDMESHTYPE: over face elements You can do a loop over the faces with this condition applied with: *Set Cond Flux *loop elems onlyincond *ElemsNum *GlobalNodes(1) *GlobalNodes(2) *GlobalNodes(3) *Cond(1) *Cond(2) *end e...

Hi Martin, Your mesh is relivelly simple, I've read your stl as a mesh, and manually edited to delete the triangles that are visually bad (the joins of pipes, and some tops), I deleted this bad triangles, and created other better (to have at least a closed volume). To created manually triangles I us...

You are right James, We are going to fix this bug soon, but as advice, it's much better to directly copy your problemtypes (or a link pointing to your problemtypes to avoid multiple copies of the same problemtype) inside the \problemtypes directory of GiD, then it's eaiser to load the problemtype di...

Yes, read GiD help about Mesh-Unstructured-Sizes by background mesh: you can write a background mesh file, that basically is a mesh and a list of new required sizes on nodes (or on elements that will be averaged to the nodes) This mesh could be the one that you just have solved and where you can est...
