    Hi,

     

    Use Remesh option in Tetramesh optimization dialogue box to remesh the elements within the refinement box.

    yes, no problem. Once the meshing optimization is done, you can delete the temporary size component.

    Hi, I ma trying to follow this procedure but I cannot force elements located on the solid boundary faces to remesh/refine also. Can you help me with that and take a look:

    I also have the same issue as pkozlovsky. The free face are not re-meshed even though the 'Remesh' option is chosen.

    Any idea?
