poIQueryIterator GetDataList--> Need to get the Component ID

Emil George

Hi..

I am trying to create a TCL script for postprocessing in Hyperview.

I need to get the component ID for the corresponding Node ID which Is showing maximum displacement . I am able to retrieve the node Id and maximum displacement value, but could not retrieve the corresponding component ID.

Thanks in advance

Hi Emil,

You can query component.id too, so:

qry$w SetQuery 'component.id contour.value';

qry$w GetIteratorHandle itr$w

Hi Livil,

Thanks a lot for your reply..I tried to use the above command and retrieve the component ID to print it in a 'Note Handle'. But I am getting some error. below is the part of the script I have used.

######################################################

set msr_max [lindex [m1$w GetEntityList] 1]
   qry$w SetQuery 'component.id contour.value'
   qry$w SetSelectionSet [s1$w GetID]
   qry$w GetIteratorHandle itr$w;
   set datalist [itr$w GetDataList];
   itr$w Next
   set componentid [lindex $datalist 0]
   puts $componentid
   puts 'check query'
   set note_id [client$w AddNote]
   set n_handle [client$w GetNoteHandle n$w $note_id]
   n$w SetAttachment 'node $msr_max'
   puts $msr_max
   n$w SetPosition 1 1
   n$w SetBorderThickness 2
   n$w SetLabel 'Max Contour value'
   n$w SetText 'NodeID {entity.id} \nContour_Value {entity.contour_val} \n {entity.component_id}'

I need to get get the component ID and make that specific component alone in OPAQUE mode and remaining all parts in transparent view..

Could you please run it line by line and share the error and the line in which it occurs.

Emil George

The script is not showing any error as such and is completing .. but I am not getting the desired output below isthe explanation happening at line#8 and line #17

1. set msr_max [lindex [m1$w GetEntityList] 1]
2. qry$w SetQuery 'component.id contour.value'
3. qry$w SetSelectionSet [s1$w GetID]
4. qry$w GetIteratorHandle itr$w;
5. set datalist [itr$w GetDataList];
6. itr$w Next
7. set componentid [lindex $datalist 0]
8. puts $componentid ---------------->#### Nothing is getting pritted in this line##
9. puts 'check query'
10. set note_id [client$w AddNote]
11. set n_handle [client$w GetNoteHandle n$w $note_id]

Hi Livil,

Is the above info you were asking for?

llyle_20499

Hi,

Try following this order

1. set msr_max [lindex [m1$w GetEntityList] 1]
2. qry$w SetQuery 'component.id contour.value'
3. qry$w SetSelectionSet [s1$w GetID]
4. qry$w GetIteratorHandle itr$w;

5. while {[itr$w Valid]} {

6. set datalist [itr$w GetDataList];

7. set componentid [lindex $datalist 0]

8. puts $componentid

9. itr$w Next

10. }

Emil George

Thanks for the reply.. I tried what you have shared.. still it is not working

the script is skipping the above while loop and completing .. not sure where it is going wrong

Emil George

Also one more help I need.. If I know a particular component ID, and I need to keep that alone in Opaque mode and remaining all components in TRANSPARENT mode..

I tried to refer poIRenderOptions, but could not find any specific command for this

llyle_20499

try these.

poIModel_handle SetPolygonMode Transparent

poIModel_handle SetPolygonMode 'opaque'

Emil George

thanks Livil.. It worked
