[CIG-LONG] Can Gale load mesh created by other software?

[Steve Quenette]

Hi Jiangzhi,


We have importers from gocad, etc, but not cubit or gid.  If there's a will/demand for it, please let us know and we can probably turn something around pretty quickly, and will work with Walter to it into your hands quickly.


Thanks


Steve
