Get highest set ID number

Guy01

Hello

 

Is it possible to retrieve the highest set id number that exists in the model tree?

So that when i create a new set by command it does not clash with existing set id. The idea is to create a set with 'ID = max set id +1'.

 

Thanks in advance

I think that do automatically in Hypermesh. When you create new set, the ID will be 'maxID + 1'

Yes Hypermesh does that for you. In case you need, try with hm_entitymaxid.

@vipin Thanks a lot that helped

@Nguyen yes in my set creation commands i need the max set id. Its for the line '*attributeupdateint sets $max_set_id 3240 1 2 0 1'

Don't do that, 

Use hm_latestentityid to return created set id

It could not be max id if includes are there (from version 13)
