Why I can't see the object in the geometry view resulted from the following code?


#domain: 0.440 0.410 0.002

See attached image of the geometry from Paraview. Your model is rather strange, but all the objects you have specified are there. What are you using to visualise the geometry? As mentioned in another thread, we recommend Paraview and supply a macro to help with viewing the geometry in Paraview.

I have used this macro 

but I still can't get the same image as yours!
I am new to this, so thank you so much for your helpful answers and for the time you spend to answer our questions.

Hi,

I appreciate you are new, but we have tried to put a lot of effort into the documentation which describes how to visualise the geometry - http://docs.gprmax.com/en/latest/output.html#geometry-output

If you are following these instructions with the input file you posted previously then you should get the same image I posted earlier. If this is not happening then let us know the version number of gprMax you are using and the operating system you are running on.

Kind regards,

Craig

I can see the geometry but I do not see the transmitter and the receiver

 here is the code:

#domain: 1.600 1.700 0.002
#dx_dy_dz: 0.002 0.002 0.002
#time_window: 3e-9

#material: 6 0 1 0 half_space
#material: 4.5 0 1 0 Concrete
#material: 5.8 0 1 0 pvc

#waveform: ricker 1 1.5e9 my_ricker
#hertzian_dipole: z 0.400 1.600 0 my_ricker
#rx: 1.200 1.600 0

#box: 0 0 0 1.600 1.600 0.002 half_space
#cylinder: 0.800 0.700 0 0.800 0.700 0.002 0.300 pec

#geometry_view: 0 0 0 1.600 1.700 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.002

They are there, hide the half_space material in Paraview, the zoom in.
