I have also come up with a few questions. </div><div><br></div><div>Tags:</div><ul><li>DataTypes – from what I can see, tags do not support a few of the numpy datatypes, namely: float32, int16, and int64. Is this a constraint of the PyTAPS wrapper or the underlying iMesh/MOAB infrastructure?</li><li>Tags-of-tags – Is this possible? I've tried a couple of ways but can't seem to get it to go.</li></ul><div>Topology:</div><ul><li>Is it possible to apply topology over entity sets? One way I've found for dealing with time is to have a "temporal" EntitySet that has child EntitySets for each timestep. This seems to work well, but I can't find a way of relating the various timesteps aside from the inherent indexing of the "temporal" EntitySet. I hoped that it would be possible to do something like make a line_segment that related the timestep EntitySets, but that didn't seem to work.</li><li>Edges from quadrilaterals: After building a set of quadrilateral entities from an array of vertices, I was surprised that there were not edge entities generated as well. Is there a method for doing this? I realize I could generate the edges from the vertex array (perhaps after some reworking), but it seems to me that it might also be possible to get them from the quadrilaterals themselves.</li></ul><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks in advance,</div><div>Chris</div></body></html>
