karth

In HM model, how to display the load collectors' IDs besides the node.?

This is needed in order to determine the load applied at each nodes.

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

Hi Karth,

By clicking the following image you will be able to display ids:

Steps:

1. Click on

2. Click on 'loads'

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

3. Check the 'display' button

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

4. Click on 'loads' and select 'by collector'

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

By this you should be able to view load collector id.

Thank you.

Prasanna,

Thanks for that option.

However, pl fid attached image. The ID getting displayed is different from the one in the model tree.

Hi,

It is of course the ID of the load, not the ID of the load collector...

I don't know a direct way to show this.

Best Regards,

Mario

Yes we can see that panel 'numbers' does not support displaying collector ids.

A workaround is to use a title (we are lucky because a title can be attached to a load)

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

A sample script is like below

*createmarkpanel loads 1 'Select loads to show IDs:'

foreach lid [hm_getmark loads 1] {

set cid [hm_getvalue loads id=$lid dataname=collector.id]

set tid load_$lid

*createmark titles 1 $tid

if {[hm_marklength titles 1]} {*deletemark titles 1}

lassign [hm_getvalue loads id=$lid dataname=baselocation] x y z

lassign [hm_viewproject $x $y $z] X Y Z

lassign [hm_getgraphicsarea] gx gy gw gh

*titlecreate $tid loads $lid 0 2 1 0 [expr $X/$gw] [expr $Y/$gh]

*titlemodify $tid borderon '' 0 0

*titlemodify $tid titletext $cid 0 1

}
