Create dependent linemesh


Hi all!
I'm a student very new to HyperMesh, and I need to solve my doubt.
There is any chance to create linemesh from nodes to a single node? I saw this function for rigids with dependent/independent nodes.
thanks
Dario


what kind of 1d element do you need to create?
Do you need to create several 1d elements all joined at the same node at one end and different nodes at the other?
yes!
I need to create bar2 element with linemesh, but i need lines.
I'm sorry but I can't access the script exchange because I'm a student, not a costumer.

Hi,
try this script:
*createmarkpanel elems 1 'select rbe2 elements:'
*createmark elems 2 'by config' rigidlink
*markintersection elems 1 elems 2
foreach ElemId [hm_getmark elems 1] {
*createmark elems 1 $ElemId
*findmark elems 1 1 1 nodes 0 1
set Node1 [hm_getentityvalue elems $ElemId independentnode.id 0]
hm_markremove nodes 1 $Node1
foreach NodeId [hm_getmark nodes 1] {
*rod $Node1 $NodeId ''
}
}
