FEM Gmsh not working in FC v0.19?

Post by PMac »

Hi, Have been trying out FEM on a basic cube. Haven't tried FEM probably since FC v0.18 so was refreshing my knowledge of the workbench.

Mesh generation and Calculix solver works OK with a Netgen mesh.
However creation of a Gmsh mesh runs OK but never appears to create a mesh so the FEM process stops.

Have attached 2x files to demonstrate issue.
