Elements assign specific colors

Altair Forum User

Hello All,

 

It is my first Question here, i hope i do everything right. First of all, sorry for my English :-)

 

Is there a possibility , to colour (preferably a function of a number) elements of a component (It is a *.k File) ?

 

Thank you.

BALolo,

 

Do you need to change the colour of a component? that is easily done from the browser 

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

 

if it is a .k file, you can do any changes to a .k using HyperMesh itself,

Hey,

 

thank you for your answer.

 

No, i have to change the colour of the elements of a component (one component has for example 100 elements and i have to colour 20 elements green, 20 red and 60 blue).

best to import into HyperMesh, select the elements and organize into separate components, 

 

You could create sets in HyperView for selected elements and change the colour of the sets if necessary to do it in hyperView itself.

Hello,

 

it is not possible to color a single element (e.g. like Femap). You have to organize the elements in components, as Rahul has written.

 

Best regards,
