Ask about the number of points used in the probes
 
Hi all,

For regular waves, the wave height is H. I set the lower end of the probe at -H from still water level and the upper end of the probe at +H from the still water level. And the default number of points of a probe is 100. So in this case the length of the probe is quite small and the number of points is relatively large. Does this affect the accuracy of the surface elevation???

Hope to receive any advice or comments.

Many thanks
Xiantao
