Get the points on the surface selected using TCL/Tk script

Hello,

How to get the point list on the boundary of a selected surface?

My goal is to get the distance between the points and set the element density accordingly.

HyperMesh

You can do like this

*createmark points 1 'by surface' $surfID

set PointList [hm_getmark points 1]

Hi

You can do like this

*createmark points 1 'by surface' $surfID

set PointList [hm_getmark points 1]

Thank you for the reply. It worked for me. But how to get the surface id of the surface currently selected?

Use

set surfIDs [ hm_getmark surfs 1]

*createmark points 1 'by surface' {*}$surfIDs

set PointList [hm_getmark points 1]

*createmark points 1 'by surface on mark' 1

set PointList [hm_getmark points 1]
