You’ll need the very latest automated build for this to work (3.0.7 git)

I save the grid both into a .p3d file (then only the structured part is saved), and into a .msh file (then all the grid       is considered as unstructured). To have only the farfield grid, I comment lines concerning the structured part and I save the grid into .msh file. A preprocessing outside gmsh is necessary to identify connections between both grids.

This is working but i can't connect the structured region with the unstructured one. It seems that these two aren't connected together and the unstructured mesh falls into the structured part.
