high order spaces

hello ngsolve!

Is there a way to use the high order spaces in ngsolve? For example, is it possible to use Legendre polynomials on quads and hexahedra? There seems to be a C++ implementation here but I am not sure how this can be extended to be used in python scripts.

Thank you!

Hi, high order spaces are the default in ngsolve. Just create them with the order flag:

fes = H1(mesh, order=5)

The tutorial you found is how you would implement your own finite element spaces.
Best is to walk threw the i-tutorial as a start and to get a good overview.
