Hi Walter,<div>Thanks for reply. If I do not use WallVC how can I work out to extend the model when the base is angular and sliding down by gravity. The other question is I am using Gale 1.5 and tried to build 3D model but did not work. Do you have any suggestion?</div><div><br></div><div>Kind regards </div><div>Tariq <br><br><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br><div>> Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2011 10:51:10 -0700<br>> To: tareq424@hotmail.com<br>> Subject: Re: Model with gravity<br>> From: walter@geodynamics.org<br>> <br>> Tariqul Islam <tareq424@hotmail.com> wrote:<br>> > Hi Walter,<br>> > I am working with a model that is extended from both side.
