I need to use *positionmark in a for loop of a macro, I have the x, y, and z coordinates of all 6 nodes that are required for *positionmark command.
How to execute *positionmark command in this case.
Thank You

Malli
Hi Malli
there is manual about this command
http://www.altairhyperworks.com/hwhelp/Altair/hw12.0/help/hwdref/hwdref.aspx?hypermesh_reference_guide.htm
turn to 'index' tab and type in '*positionmark'
node ids are used instead of their coordinates
Thank for the reply.
How to get the nodes id if I know the coordinates of that node.
in other words....
Here I may have to create temp nodes with the coordinates that I have with me. After creating temp nodes, I am not aware how to get the ids of that nodes to execute *positionmark command.
Hi
to get id of node that just created, you can use
