Quad elements

Hi Guys

This is really a noob question, can Netgen develop quad shell element meshes? All the examples which I see floating around are of tri elements.

Kind regards

Quad dominated, but not pure quad.
Just use meshing parameter quad_dominated=True

one files of code to generate full quad based on triangle mesh from NetGen is available, please visit directly at GitLab.

Dear Mishal,
sorry for the late replay, you can also use the ngsPETSc interface to obtain a purely quad mesh from a Netgen triangular mesh.
You can find an example of how to achieve this result in the ngsPETSc documentation: PETSc DMPlex — ngsPETSc 0.0.1 documentation
Best,
