[Gmsh] problem when saving in unroll format surface which, contains a hole boundary

[benjamin JEANTY-RUARD]

Hello Mikhail,

I think your procedure solves my problem but the face where there is a
problem is automatically generated by code.

Correct the code which generates this face is possible but the time
required to implement it is prohibitive.

Thank you for your answer,

Best regards,

Benjamin
