I used the example t8.geo in the tutorials to make a script to output .gif
images (or .jpg). Then, I use the imagemagick (http://www.imagemagick.org/)
"convert" command to string the images together into an animated gif:
convert -delay 10 -loop 0 *.gif animated.gif
Here is a .geo file which rotates geometry:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Point(1) = {0, 0, 0, 0.1};
Point(2) = {0, 1, 0, 0.1};
Point(3) = {1, 1, 0, 0.1};
Point(4) = {1, 0, 0, 0.1};
Line(1) = {1,2};
Line(2) = {2,3};
Line(3) = {3,4};
Line(4) = {4,1};
Line Loop(5) = {1,2,3,4};
Plane Surface(6) = {5};
General.Trackball = 0;
General.RotationX = 0;
General.RotationY = 0;
General.RotationX = 0;
For i In {1:18}
General.RotationX = 20*i;
General.RotationZ = 10*i;
Sleep 0.1;
Draw;
// If (i<10)
// Print Sprintf("box-0%g.gif",i);
// EndIf
// If (i>=10)
// Print Sprintf("box-%g.gif",i);
// EndIf
EndFor

Uncomment the lines in the loop to create the image files. I was
unsuccessful at using the command line to create a background mesh, but once
you have that figured out, I assume the Include "xxx.pos" at the beginning
will do what you want.

Subject: [Gmsh] animation for the meshed geometry
hi,
I generated a mesh file which is required for a CFD code using the gmsh. At
this step, I would like to prepare a small presentation at least for the
geometry that I have right now. But because of the complexity of the
geometry, I would like to prepare a 3-D animation but I don't know which
program I have to use for this purpose.
may you suggest me a 3-d animation program to make a small presentation?
I only would like to rotate the 3-D meshed surfaces.
thanks
