Dear Gmsh users,

We have thus just released a new version of Gmsh (1.24) which fixes some
serious bugs present in 1.23. This new version also incorporates
Jonathan Shewchuck's Triangle as an alternative 2D isotropic mesh
generator (it's available with '-algo tri' or with the appropriate
option in 'Options->Mesh->Algorithm').


Christophe

New in 1.24: Fixed characteristic length interpolation for Splines;
fixed edge swapping bug in 3D initial mesh; fixed degenerated case in
geometrical extrusion (ruled surface with 3 borders); fixed generation
of degenerated hexahedra and prisms for recombined+extruded meshes;
added BSplines creation in the GUI; integrated Jonathan Shewchuk's
Triangle as an alternative isotropic 2D mesh generator; added
AngleSmoothNormals to control sharp edge display with smoothed
normals; fixed random crash for lighted 3D iso surfaces;
