Hello!
I build adaptive hexahedral mesh in OpenFOAM with the help of utility snappyHexMesh. And then, when I open the results in ParaView, I see strange oblique lines. Does this mean that the mesh data was incorrectly transferred from OpenFOAM to ParaView, or ParaView can't visualize octree meshes?

Hi,

Is the "Decompose Polyhedra" option selected in the list of available options for the mesh? That might explain the lines that you see.

Cheers,
Antimony

Thank you! The problem really was that this option was enabled.
