Hello!

I am trying to mesh the domain around this Umbrella structure [Attached are some screen-shots]
I got a mix of Tet. and Hex. cells
I wonder what parameters in snappyHexMesh control the shape of the cells (Hex. or Tet.)

Can I get a Hex-only-mesh?

Attached is a screen shot of a mesh of generated by snappyHexMesh (a domain around a human head).It consists of only Hex. cells [This screen shot is from the snappyHexMesh tutorial which I found on http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/SnappyHexMesh]

How did they get this mesh?

Thanks for your Help!
