[GiDlist] Dimension help

Post by Mike Monti »

Hi everyone
Have recently downloaded Version 7 and its very nice I must say.
However in the data directory I seem to have lost the problem dimensions
option where you select if the problem is in metres or mm.
I read in the manual there should be a .uni file with the problem type, but I
cant seem to make this work. I am using Calculix solver and San Lea FFEA for
a solver as well. Can anyone help?
Cheers
Mike

GiD includes in the /scritps directory a file named units.gid to define some
units, a problem type can also contain a file named 'problemtype'.uni to
overwrite this default units.

If the problem type use the units of GiD, then is showed a menu Data Units.
The values of model units and base system selected by the user are saved
with the
model inside the file 'modelname'.uni.

I'unknow the problemtype 'Calculix', you can send it to see?
