Hello again,

I am still struggling with it and would be very glad if someone gave me some hints or commets for this.

Have a nice day,

Your remark seems to imply I need to get the id number of the faces I want to extrude directly from my *.stl file. Are the faces consecutively numbered? I guess not, because gmsh doesn’t accept identification numbers like 0, 1, 2 or 3. I think the problem is I just do not know how to “activate“ my stl in gmsh.

When I try to assign a elementary ruled surface, nothing happens (I can?t even highlight a surface). When I try to assign a physical surface, gmsh seems to accept it. At least the surface appears in the *.geo file. When I want to extrude the newly created surface, gmsh complains about an unknown surface 5.
