type command

Syntax

extrude mesh type keyword

Primary keywords:

mixed    unstructured

Specify the type of mesh. By default, 3- and 4-sided (regular) polygons use structured mesh; this command specifies if unstructured mesh should be used for such polygons.

mixed

Use structured mesh for 3- and 4-sided simply-connected polygons and unstructured mesh for all other polygons. This is the default option.

unstructured

Use unstructured mesh for all polygons. If this option is used and mesh mode (see extrude mesh mode) is set to quad, triangular polygons will be meshed with quadrilaterals only (amount of zones per perimeter should be even).
