fixed interval size in 1D meshing

Hi, I wonder if it is possible to use a fixed size for subintervals when doing 1D meshing. So if the given mesh size is 0.1m, then a line of length 1m would always be divided into 10 subintervals, each with length 0.1m.
I tried to set the maximum and minimum element size be the same (0.1m) in the mesh setting but still get smaller subintervals of length 0.075m. Are there any mesh variables that need to be adjust?
Any help would be appreciated.

The solution is to use the feature 'distribution' in the mesh setting to control the element distribution. It has an option to specify the number of mesh elements along each line.
