[Gmsh] "Wrong number of adaptions" error

Hi again,

I am trying to visualize a model with two different types of elements,
the basic 2-node line and the 4-node cubic line. When I try to use
"Adapt visualization grid" so I can see the deformation of the 4-node
line, I get "Error : Wrong number of values in adaptation 2 != 4".

I did some testing and this does not happen when I remove the 2-node
line elements. It seems its trying to refine the 2-node line when it
doesn't need to?

I have attached below a sample *.msh file, which is a simple truss problem.

Regards,

Mohamed
