accessing to the coordtransf object of the elements

Post by cenk tort »

Hello,
I am implementing a new type of constraint as a subclass of MP_Constraint. In this new function I need to access to the coordtranf object of the elements associated with the constraint equations. I need the coordtranf object to get the direction vectors of the elements. Does anbody have an idea how to get the coordtransf objects or direction vectors of the elements ?
Thanks,
