 + 
 +- the position of two points (see Figure below) 
 +- the length of the upside 
 +- the length of the downside 
 +- the number of element on the raffine side (upside) (must be a multiple of 3) 
 +- the number of transition between the down and up

 +GMSH is a powerful tool, but due to its completness it is not always easy to find some informations. There exists a where people can directly ask question to developpers [[https://​gitlab.onelab.info/​gmsh/​gmsh/​-/​issues]]. There exists also a place where archives are stored [[https://​onelab.info/​pipermail/​gmsh/​]],​ this place is not very friendly to find a subject (it is better to use google with a research that looks like "GMSH XXX" where XXX represents the subject, better to try all the possibilities). ​
 +
 +
 +Below you can find a list of all questions that were looking very interesting :
 +
 +  - **Modify .geo trough python** : [[https://​onelab.info/​pipermail/​gmsh/​2011/​006588.html]]
 +  - **Avoid duplicate geometry/​mesh** : [[https://​gitlab.onelab.info/​gmsh/​gmsh/​-/​issues/​983]]
