[Gmsh] Coordinate format

[Fabrice Pepin]

Hello,
Coding is not an option for me but thanks anyway for the answer.Having the option of the number of digits would be nice especially for regular applications where 16 digits are a bit too much...

Not that I am aware of. You might:

a. edit the Gmsh source code, particularly line 74 of Geo/MVertex.cpp
that reads

fprintf(fp, "%d %.16g %.16g %.16g ", _index, x() * scalingFactor,


b. edit the Calculix source code (good luck, it is Fortran!)

c. use another more modern option, say www.seamplex.com/fino



BTW, for the original developers, it would be nice to somehow being able
to change the hardcoded %.16g in runtime, for example to reduce the size
of the resulting ASCII mesh files.

Cheers
