Dear All,

I have a problem with mapFieldsDict.

This is my dictionary:

/*--------------------------------*- C++ -*----------------------------------*\

The problem is that in this way when I write

 mapFields -sourceTime 10000 ../../steady/steady2D/

I get this:

and nothing happens, while if I write

 mapFields -consistent -sourceTime 10000 ../../steady/steady2D/

without the mapFieldsDict, it works.

The problem is that I need the 1st way, since I'd like to remove the patch ``door''.

What's wrong with my dictionary?

Thanks a lot,

Dear samiam1000,

I had the same problem about the mapping the results between different geometries. Actually most of the parts are the same but I just changed one of the BC. When I did the mapFields, it gave me nothing in my target folder. Could you please tell me how did you solve this problem in your case? Thank you.

I guess the problem is not correctly creating the files like p U etc in the target folder.

I carried out the following steps and it works perfectly.

Step 1. Create mapFieldDict in the folder system.
Step 2. Change the startTime to the source
Step 3. Create folder of the latest time step
Step 4. Cp all files in the folder 0 to the latest time folder
Step 5. execute: mapFields -sourceTime *** path/to/source/case
Note: -consistent only be used when two geometries and boundaries are exactly the same
