Simlab Automation Get model name for node position from node ID
Hello,
I am trying get model name for node position as script below
Center17673=simlab.getNodePositionFromNodeID("'''FEMModelName'''",5);
Center17674=simlab.getNodePositionFromNodeID("'''FEMModelName'''",4);
Center17675=simlab.getNodePositionFromNodeID("'''FEMModelName'''",6);
Center17676=simlab.getNodePositionFromNodeID("'''FEMModelName'''",2);
Center17677=simlab.getNodePositionFromNodeID("'''FEMModelName'''",1);
Center17678=simlab.getNodePositionFromNodeID("'''FEMModelName'''",7);
FEMModelName = simlab.getModelName("FEM");
MatchNodes=''' <MatchNodes CheckBox="ON" UUID="a1c0401f-a4d1-4f7a-8ae7-47f59af07ae7" gda="">
<tag Value="-1"/>
<Name Value=""/>
<copy Value="FALSE"/>
<lbc Value="FALSE"/>
<flip Value="0"/>
<FixedNode>
<Entities>
<Model>'''+FEMModelName+'''</Model>
<Node>5,4,6,</Node>
</Entities>
</FixedNode>
<MovableNode>
<Entities>
<Model>'''+FEMModelName+'''</Model>
<Node>2,1,7,</Node>
</Entities>
</MovableNode>
<Point1 Value="'''+str(Center17673).strip('()')+'''"/>
<Point2 Value="'''+str(Center17674).strip('()')+'''"/>
<Point3 Value="'''+str(Center17675).strip('()')+'''"/>
<Point4 Value="'''+str(Center17676).strip('()')+'''"/>
<Point5 Value="'''+str(Center17677).strip('()')+'''"/>
<Point6 Value="'''+str(Center17678).strip('()')+'''"/>
<Body>
<Entities>
<Model>'''+FEMModelName+'''</Model>
<Body></Body>
</Entities>
</Body>
<Output/>
</MatchNodes>''';
simlab.execute(MatchNodes);
Getting Error as below...can anyone guide for the same
getModelName-------------------------------------- Passed
getNodePositionFromNodeID------------------------- Failed
Model name not found
getNodePositionFromNodeID------------------------- Failed

Hello,
this syntax
Center17673=simlab.getNodePositionFromNodeID("'''FEMModelName'''",5);
Seems wrong to me.
Let's say, my model is called AA.gda and I want to find the position of the node 5360
I can use the command
Center=simlab.getNodePositionFromNodeID("AA.gda",5360);Now, if I put the model name in a string named FEMModelName:
FEMModelName='AA.gda';
then I can use the string variable in my syntax as follows:
Center1=simlab.getNodePositionFromNodeID(FEMModelName,5360)
The ''''' are not needed there, if FEMModelName is a python variable.
I hope this can help.

Hello Alessio,
It worked perfect...Thank you
I have an another issue of getting FE model name for renumbering
FEMModelName = simlab.getModelName("FEM");
Renumber=''' <Renumber UUID="28706164-a6f5-4544-b4a9-c052c4b6c60f">
<Option Value="Nodes"/>
<Selection Value="Model"/>
<AdvancedOption>
<SurfaceAndInterior Value="false"/>
<CornerAndMid Value="false"/>
</AdvancedOption>
<RenumberData>
<Model>'''+FEMModelName+'''</Model>
<NodeStartID>101</NodeStartID>
</Model>
</RenumberData>
<FileName Value=""/>
</Renumber>''';
simlab.execute(Renumber);The task shows passed d but the model is not renumbered..
But when i check with actual model name its working..
Renumber=''' <Renumber UUID="28706164-a6f5-4544-b4a9-c052c4b6c60f">
<Option Value="Nodes"/>
<Selection Value="Model"/>
<AdvancedOption>
<SurfaceAndInterior Value="false"/>
<CornerAndMid Value="false"/>
</AdvancedOption>
<RenumberData>
<Model Name="sample__source change_sltr1_SM.gda">
<NodeStartID>101</NodeStartID>
</Model>
</RenumberData>
<FileName Value=""/>
</Renumber>''';
simlab.execute(Renumber);May be again syntex error ....
Kindly guide.
Thnak you
