Hello,

I am trying to find a way to select entities (nodes) in my model in order to export information (Node ID, Node Coordinates, Contour etc.) through the Table function. The only valid way I found until now is selecting those entities using my cursor or the Advanced Query.

This method is quite slow considering I have to export different data in function of different Simulation Steps, I would like to find an automatic way in order to write a script to make the process quicker.

I am trying to use the HWC and Tcl Command Window and the only approach I found is the use of the command *createmark in Tcl, but it looks not compatible with HyperView but only with HyperMesh.

Is there any command that I can implement in HyperView in order to select entities?

Am I missing something using the HWC and Tcl Command Window?

Thanks for the support.

Giorgio
