Nastran (bdf) HEXA mesh saving
Hello!
I try to save mesh with 1000000 (aprox.) hexa elements into bdf format. After saving, this file can't be read by gmsh or other program. IMHO, problem is with
- nastran have limits - 80 symbols in line
- with hexa elements you use special additional line with pointer to it in textual format
- cause we have a lot of hexa - format is broken, last field (its just a pointer to next additional line in text) overcomes 80 symbols limit and in second line 1st and 2nd field overlaps.
This is part of bdf, generated by gmsh, which is 81 symbols len and broken pointer field, like "+E1000001724978"
