Monday next week (15th July 2013) we will release the first patch where this issue has been addressed.

Thank you.

Yes, I'm sure it depends alot on the scale of the scene etc.

I tried it overnight, but I think I set the offset too high so it almost removed the interaction totally...
So it's a little unreliable for me, I'll try to use the graph posted here next time the fluid is "too far away".

But as far as I understood the conversation here, the idea of using negative surface offset would be a viable workflow later on...

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Hey,

I've changed the file for a zip, althought the new patch has been already released.

On a sidenote, just a question about surface offset, does anyone know what unit it is in? Metres or cells?

"Surface offset" is measured in meters. Thanks for the note - I'll add it to the manual.
