[Gmsh] Problem with 3-D meshing cube with holes

[David Colignon]

Hi Laurent,

in this case, there is no hole, your volume is delimited by only one surface. So, by removing the definition of your 2 
Surface Loop and your Volume in your .geo file, and by defining the volume with the GUI (Geometry->Elementary 
entities->Add->New->Volume), then picking just one surface, Gmsh should automatically select all the remaining surfaces 
and define the volume. This is not the case here, so I suspect there is a problem with the definition of one or more 
surfaces...

Regards,

Dave
