Hello,

A quick question.

Does anyone know how to get the “TriMasterContactTie.frd” file documented in the \*TIE card of ccx manual. Supposedly it should contain the triangulation performed on a master face when using the \*TIE card, but I have never seen this file being outputted.

Thank you in advance,  
Best regards,  
Jorge
