[Gmsh] Gmsh Python API

[Alejandro Pina]

Thanks Christophe for replying. I have attached a picture after adding the
line you suggested.
In the picture you can also see the API version I am using and built number.
The size of triangles does not respond to any value set on Œlc¹.
Best,
Alejandro

It works fine over here: are you sure you are editing/examining the correct
input/output files?

Add

  gmsh.fltk.run()

before gmsh.finalize() - it will launch the GUI so that you  can inspect the
model interactively.
