<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">I have a question concerning the generation of matching meshes. I need the stl files of a cylinder with top, bottom and circumference separately named so I use 3
different .geo files as attached (generateSTL is the batch sh file to run all the commands)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">What I find strange is, that the “Transfinite Line” command and the “Layers” command in Extrude handle the number parameter differently. Only Layers = n and Transfinite
Line = n+1 result in matching meshes.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
