[Gmsh] R: Geometry modification on physical entities

[DILASSER Guillaume]

Yes, that should work. A quick note though, you might want to "Merge" the first file that creates the geometry in the second that rotates it in order to keep your reference file clean. An example is enclosed with this mail.

Hullo Guillaume,



yes, starting from an existing geo I want to rotate physical components in order to manage automatic geometry modifications and mesh generation from an external executable program.



But following your suggestion what I can do from my external program is to add the lines:



tmp[] = Physical Surface { xyz } ;



Rotate { { 1. , 0. , 0. } , { 0. , 0. , 0. } , Pi/2. }

       { Surface { tmp[] } ; }



to my .geo file and then generate the mesh, this should work...



Alessandro

Hello Alessandro,



Have a look at the enclosed file for an example of what Christophe was mentioning. Also, I don't understand what you are trying to achieve "from the command line". Is it that you generate geometry as a physical entity in one .geo file and want to rotate it afterwards ? If that is the case, I don't think this can actually work because there is no input argument that you could use from the command line to specify with Physical Entity you wish to transform. This at least will have to be defined somewhere in a .geo file.

I'm afraid this is not clear to me, how can I use this feature from command line? Thank you.

No, but you can get all the elementary entities making up a physical group using e.g. "Physical Line {tag}" (it returns a list), which you can then use in the transformation commands.
