  Hi Dutcho Le,

   

  If you are doing this in Designer mode you can't define keypoints on the boundaries, designer uses the model extents to define a begin and end X and Y keypoint automatically.

  You can define a new keypoints anywhere within the model extents. Using your image the only keypoint that I personally would need to define in designer is shown with the yellow line

   

  Regards,

  Oliver

  Hi Oliver,

  Thanks for your respond. I have successfully added key points to my model using extent option in model tree. As you said, I only add the key point at the interface of two rectangle but nothing happened, the mesh does not change any thing at all. So do I miss some things?

  Best,

  Ductho

  Hey,

  So the designer UI shows an approximate meshing and doesn't take into account keypoint locations when showing the mesh.

  I output a flxdato file and opened the model in the post processor this is what the mesh actually looks like.

  

   

  As you can see there is no overlap.

  Best regards,

  Oliver
