hello,

 

I'd like to know if it is possible to choose just some specific elements while using the file assistant in define response. The thing is that I have like 800 elements and I want only like 10/15 elements and their stresses( xx,yy,xy) and i would like to have a matrix like the one we get when we take all the elementd. The elements are not consecutive. 

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

    As said elements are not consecutive.Please try loading result file using single item in  file assistant.Specify the element id of interest and evaluate expression for same. PFA screenshot from HyperStudy 2017.2.

    yes, but the I would have to do that for each element right ? 

    I want a list of 10 elements with XX, XY,YY constraints to then use the list in a function. Using the single item command I would need to do that 30times...
