GGU-SETTLE: Define triangle mesh (Ex. 1)

After you have defined at least 3 nodes (borehole points), you must connect these nodes to a triangle mesh to allow the program to interpolate when calculating. There are two possibilities:

• "Mesh/Manual mesh" menu item
  You must click on the three nodes to be connected to a triangle. Mistakenly created triangles can be deleted by clicking on the three nodes once again.

• "Mesh/Automatic" menu item
  The program carries out a so-called triangulation and connects all nodes to a triangle mesh. Subsequently, you still have the possibility of deleting triangles by using the menu item "Mesh/Manual mesh" and clicking on the three nodes of the triangle. If a triangle mesh is already present you will be asked, before triangulation begins, if the current mesh is to be deleted. Only in exceptional cases should you select "Supplement", as triangulation follows certain laws which may not allow sensible complementing of a current partial mesh.

For the example select the "Mesh/Automatic" menu item.
