[Commercial meshers] Meshing one surface inside the other

Hi
How can meshing done in Gambit to one surface inside the other separately? If I have a circle inside a rectangle, how can I remove the mesh of rectangle inside circle and create separate mesh for the circle.
Thanks

you need to split the rectangle surface with the circle.

Hi Foamers,

Do you know how can I get a .obj file to run a case similarly to the wingMotion tutorial ? I'm working on GAMBIT and .msh files but I'd like to use snappyHexMesh function ...

Thanks in advance
