How to know the number of selected nodes ?

Altair Forum User

My component has multiples curved faces, and i am selecting each and every node manually( not any shortcut like select by faces ). I have total force to distribute to each nodes.How would i keep track of the number of nodes i have selected? Is manual counting only way? Any tips to tackle the problem in different way ?

Ahilan,

After selecting nodes, click again on nodes selector and select save.

This displays the number of nodes which were selected on window.

For me, I created always some sets of node for this purpose. So I can verify easily my set before making BC or Loading.

If you have total force to distribute to some nodes, i think it's better to use RBE3 so you neither need to remember number of nodes nor devide total force to the number
