APDL rezoning does not work

APDL rezoning does not work

(OP)
Hi,

I'm trying to eliminate distortion in mesh caused by high strain. The analysis is a Static Structural and I stop the solution before divergence. I use the following code and successfully generate a refined mesh. The problem is, when the last line is executed, refined mesh vanishes and old mesh appears. What's wrong in my procedure?
Thank you for quick reply.
