I think I may know what your problem is. Plex evaluates the blocksize by
looking for an equal number of dofs
on each point. This is sufficient, but not necessary. If you are using
higher order methods, there is block structure
there that I will not see.

Jed, is there an obvious way to see that structure that I am missing?

  Thanks,
