Surface mesh visualization

Post by NewJoker »

Hi,

I have a quick question - why does surface mesh used for mesh visualization (when pressing "Load surface mesh") consist of triangles while the actual volume mesh is made of hexahedrons ? It can be quite misleading. Isn't there a way to generate quad mesh corresponding to hexahedrons inside ?
