Hello

Is there anyway to get the overlapping elements ID by python scripts,

I found that after use the Intersection command,simlab will denote the element intersected, but this action can't record to session script, can I get the element ID by the intersection function or by other way ?

Thanks

    Hello, 

     

    please use the panel INTERSECTIONS under Geometry/Body, this will allow you to create a group out of the overlapping elems.
