subsetMesh -patches with wildcard also selects e.g. processor patches

Functionality to add/problem to solve

subsetMesh accepts wildcard to select patches for exposed faces. This also selects e.g. processor patches. This is generally not the expected behaviour. Can probably be worked around by using

  • patchGroups, e.g. wall
  • anti-patterns to deselect any "processor.*"

Target audience

Users of subsetMesh

Proposal

Deselect all processor patches. Guess no need to deselect all constraint patches since we might still want to select e.g. symmetry. @Prashant
