I need API - to mesh with only Quads (using ruled option)

I need API - to mesh with only Quads (using ruled option). I am using APIs to select node paths between two layers to create mesh, but it creates tri too. I need to get only Quads.

i think there's no direct option, at least not that i know.

but doing it manually, it was something last this:

*createlist nodes 1 18841 19236 19190
*createlist nodes 2 18790 19201 13408
*linearsurfacebetweennodes 1 2 1
*set_meshfaceparams 0 1 2 0 0 1 0.5 1 1
*set_meshedgeparams 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
*set_meshedgeparams 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
*set_meshedgeparams 2 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
*set_meshedgeparams 3 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
*automesh 0 1 2
*set_meshfaceparams 0 2 4 0 0 1 0.5 1 1
*automesh 0 2 4
*storemeshtodatabase 0
*ameshclearsurface

 

hope it helps.;
