| Summary | 0004266: createPatch: 'zone' not mentioned as source type | ||||
| Description | When using createPatch, the user can set 'constructFrom' to either "set", "patch", or "zone". However, if none of these three options is specified, OpenFOAM gives the following error message: --> FOAM FATAL ERROR: Invalid source type abc Valid source types are 'patches' 'set' It does not state 'zone' as a possible source type, although it is explicitly used in the tutorials and mentioned in the user guide. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Use any tutorial case (for example 'fluid/hotRoomComfort') and misspell the option for 'constructFrom'. | ||||
