[Getdp] ... Formulation question ...

Hello Ruth,
thanks to you, too, for replying so quickly. I just tried your
suggestion, but it does not lead to success either.
So, Galerkin{[Spd[]*Norm[Dof{d Phi}],{Phi}];...} fails with:
"GetDP: Error: Wrong type of argument for function 'Norm'"
The same applies to Galerkin{[Spd[]*Norm[Dof{Grad Phi}],{Phi}];...},
by the way.
And Galerkin{[Spd[]*Dof{Norm[d Phi]},{Phi}];...} fails with:
"GetDP: Error ('E:/Sapphire
Systems/GMsh-GetDP/LevelSet/LevelSet-2D.sol' line 66): parse error on
'['"
The same applies to Galerkin{[Spd[]*Dof{Norm[Grad Phi]},{Phi}];...},
by the way.
As was mentioned earlier, I really am beginning to think this problem
has to do with some sort of need for linearity in Galerkin{}, and
Norm[] is simply not a linear function.
Regards,
Matt Koch
