Thanks in advance with that example it really works how I expected and sorry for being late in reply 
 
But I really wish to learn the logic of how the Gmsh really is working, I read the manuall but it's not descriptive for me. 
First of all I couldn't get the idea of, Gmsh is GUI or script oriented application? That is, every scripting command does have corresponding tools in GUI and vice versa and everything that can be done with scripting can be achieved with GUI? 
 
Secondly, if its relys on scripting, then does that mean the commands are executed in a stack-like manner e.g. LIFO (Last In First Out)? IF so the commands order are very important. 
 
For example, I couldn't achieve to properly hexagonize the given object (in attachment) with GUI methods other than Rui Marciel provided(which was scripting command).  I noticed I can only achieve the proper hexas for different shapes just only with (e.g. Extrude{0,0,0.5} {Surface{110};Layers{4}; Recombine;} ) 
why do I really have to use the Extrude at all?
 
Any help will be appreciated.
