Hi,
I am trying to reduce the size of my 3D mesh using Ansys Meshing.
I am reducing the value of the slider of relevance, but it has a very strange behaviour.
My first Mesh is about of 4.5 millions of cells, and I want to reduce it at about 500000-600000 elements.
When I pass from the value of Relevance of -63 to -62, the mesh size decreases (from about 400000 cells to 230000) instead of increasing.
Someone knows a way to control the total number of cells?

Thank you everybody,
