[GiDlist] Priority of 'Force mesh' vs 'mesh/no m

Post by escolano »

The problem is in the case where there an inconsistency between the
preferences variable to force mesh some kind of entity (e.g. surfaces like
your example) and the information set to some entities to not to mesh some
surfaces.

In last 11.1.9d version the preference variable has priority over the other
information assigned to entities, and in previous versions seems the
priority in case of contradiction was the opposite.

Really I think that is more logical the old priority, and the used-assigned
data (to not to mesh some surfaces), must override the value of the global
variable to force mesh all surfaces.

Probably this change has been unwanted and it is more a secondary effect of
other changes, and we must to restore the old behavior for next GiD versions

Hi Enrique,
Thank you.
It may not be a bug but the "mesh criteria - no-mesh - volumes" over rides
this setting on earlier versions of GiD including 11.0.6 which seems more
sensible?

Mark

It seems that is not a
bug of the 11.1.9d version,
As I have
pointed, in your model do you have set the preference Meshing-Other -
Mesh always by default. For surfaces= true Uncheck it and generate the
mesh again.

Please, send us a zip with the
model to check it.
(can send directly to my
e-mail instead of the gidlist)

Hi Gid team,
When opening saved gid model (from 11.1.9d|) in ver 11.0.6 mesh/no mesh
assignments are respected, so it must be a bug in 11.1.9d ?

Hi GiD team,
I have downloaded ver 11.1.9d, and the STEP import works but reports
errors although it seems to have imported it OK.
I have a
problem when
meshing as the mesher
doesen't obey the mesh/no-mesh criteria I have imposed on lines,surfaces
and volumes although when you do mesh-draw-mesh/no mesh it shows those
entities which should & shluld not be meshed but the mesher ignores the
asignments:?
Regards

Mark

In fact the STEP
import
is implemented in the last
11.1.9d, you can download
and use it
now,

but some
things have been fixed and

enhanced for the version 12
(available
the 17 July during the 7th GiD
convention)


Users upgrading
from version 11 to 12 will

have a 60 % of discount of
version 12
prices (these prices are not
available
until version 12
will be
available)

STEP export is not

implemented for version
12.0.x
official,
but probably it
will appear
in some
12.1.xd developer versions (during the next two
years
until a new
official version will be

released)

Regards

Enrique

Are there any plans to allow

GiD to import STEP
files?
