pyFormex - Summary
This project is not part of the GNU Project.
pyFormex is a program for generating, transforming and manipulating large
geometrical models of 3D structures by sequences of mathematical operations.
Thanks to a powerful (Python based) scripting language, pyFormex is very well
suited for the automated design of spatial structures. It provides a wide
range of operations on surface meshes, like STL type triangulated surfaces.
There are provisions to import medical scan images. pyFormex can also be used
as a pre- and post-processor for Finite Element analysis programs. Finally, it
might be used just for creating some nice graphics. Because the geometrical
models are built from a script, automation and creation of parametrized models
is a natural thing in pyFormex.

This is a bugfix of the 3.0 release, fixing an annoying bug in Mesh.subdivide for Lagrange3D type elements and dependent (hex8, hex20, hex27). The bug only occurs when different subdivisions are specified along the axes.
