Refining the Mesh Around a Point
Define a mesh refinement rule around a specified point. Mesh elements in the vicinity of the point are refined. Mesh refinement around a point is used when only a subset of a face, edge or wire needs to be refined.

-
On the Mesh tab, in the
Refinement Rules group, click the
Point Refinement icon.
- Under Position, specify the origin of the point where the mesh is to be refined.
- In the Radius field, enter a value for the radius to specify the mesh area that is to be refined.
- In the Mesh size field, enter a value for the mesh element length.
- Enter a unique label for the point refinement.
-
Click Create to create the point refinement rule
and to close the dialog.
The mesh refinement rule is added to the model tree, on the Configuration tab.
[Optional] Hide the display of mesh rules in the 3D view.
-
On the 3D View
context tab, on the Display Options tab, in the
Entity Display group, click the
Meshing Rules icon.
