Dear Professors Geuzaine and Remacle

First of all, I would like to say thank you for providing a wonderful software, Gmsh, to public.

I started to use Gmsh last week, and I am now trying to draw iso- value map of deformed solids. The deformation is analized by FEM develped by myself and Gmsh is used as a post-processer. First, to check the grammer of file format, I draw a iso-value contour with one quadrangle element.
Please have a look at some results shown in the attached file.
Node value is given such that 1 for a node and 0 for others.
The node possessing a value of 1 is changed.
The symmetric figures were expected to be drawn, but the results were not and have apparent directionality. I could not find mistake in the input file, which is also copied in the attached file.
If you could give any comment, it would help me a lot.


Hello,

By default, GMSH represents a quad as 2 triangles, so this is correct in this sense. Yet, you should be able to refine this view, using Options->View[0]- >General:Adapt Visualization Grid

Details on the way we visualize high order elements can be found in
