Thanks a lot for your help. I was previously using Python(x,y) on my windows. I was getting errors during post processing. Now I want to install SfePy in Ubuntu. Which one would you suggest Python(x,y) or Canopy?

Thanks in advance,

Nayan

I have modified your problem description file for the area loads, see the

field shape.

Does it help?
