Meshing problem of 2D elements

Hi,
I have a problem with meshing of a simple SAR element, defined by 4 structural lines. I did this many times before without any problem. This time looks like a bug. The error looks like:
+++++ error no. 2124 in program sm_processStructuralArea ; input line: 283
Structural area (SAR) 110: QUAD elements with defect transformation in corner found (shape)
(These elements may be visualized with WINGRAF/SOFiPLUS)
+++++ error no. 2124 in program sm_processStructuralArea ; input line: 283
Structural area (SAR) 120: QUAD elements with defect transformation in corner found (shape)
(These elements may be visualized with WINGRAF/SOFiPLUS)

However, the geometry is really simple - rectangle.

Hello,

Maybe it helps to set another tolerance in sofimshc with CTRL TOLG.
If it is still not working, maybe you can upload your teddy file reduced to the problematic area here?

Hi,

thanks for the upload. The reference to a secondary axis of some structural lines was problematic. Please change the input as shown in the screenshot:

Only the structural points 10xxx are located on the axes, therefore only the first lines can have a reference REF.

I am also getting the same error as: Structural area (SAR) 1002: QUAD elements with defect transformation in corner found (shape)
