<br>
First I would like to congratulate you one the wonderful tool you have developed. I have just found out about Gmsh few days ago and have been experimenting (version 2.8.5) with mesh generation for some of my models in last couple of days.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

I have one issue though - I can not generate 3d mesh on my wing model. Check the attached files (the wing was created in Rhino5, that's the .3dm file.) I am also sending you exporte .igs and .stp versions of the original .3dm file.<br>
<br>
Generating 2d meshes works great. But for some reason 3d one can't be generated.<br>
<br>
Would you be so kind to take check the files and tell me where the problem is please?
<br>
<br>
Thank you.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
Djordje Spasic<o:p></o:p></span></p>
