ElmerGrid partition option

[rgladstone]

Hi, when using ElmerGrid with the -partition option for less than 3 dimensions (my case is 2 dimensions) a dummy argument is needed in the place of the third dimension in order for the partition strategy argument to be recognised. I need to set this argument to 2 otherwise the structured mesh mapper sometimes causes tangled nodes at the partition interfaces.

This is how my command should read according to the documentation:

Code: Select all

 
ElmerGrid 2 2 FL2Dmesh/ -partition 16 1 2

This is how it actually is in order to get the final argument to be recognised:

Code: Select all

 
ElmerGrid 2 2 FL2Dmesh/ -partition 16 1 0 2

This is a very minor issue, but might save people time in the future if it is either fixed or the documentation modified to reflect current functionality.

Thanks,
Rupert
