ReporterPointMarker

Marks the region inside or empty if it contains a reporter defined point for refinement or coarsening.

Description

The ReporterPointMarker is a stand-alone marker that marks all elements as either "inside" or "outside" based on whether or not the element contains a point defined by a vector of coordinates given in a Reporter.

Example Input Syntax

The mesh domain in the following input file is a 2D square with and . The marker labeled "box" gets valid coordinates from the vector coords in the ConstantReporter. For this 2D domain, only points with coord/z=0 vector entries will be found inside the domain. The final reporter vector entry with coord/z=1 will produce a point outside the domain and will be ignored. Elements containing a point them are marked with the "REFINE" flag and empty elements are marked "DO_NOTHING". Alternatively, empty elements could be marked with the "COARSEN" flag to coarsen the mesh if points move out of an element.

In the ReporterPointMarker labeled bad_coord, the reporter vectors containing coordinates are a different size, triggering an error.
