To get node id attached to a system through CELAS2 Element

Hi Vikas,

Have you tried: 

set systemid [hm_getvalue nodes id=$nodeID1 dataname=outputsystemid];

else please share a simple model with that element and system. 

Thanks livil,

This is helpful. I never tried in reverse as you have mentioned.

And how we can review system as shown in image. If we know system id.

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

@Livil Lyle please suggest.

I tried below code but it is not helpful.

*createmark systems 1 'all'
set sysID [hm_getmark systems 1]
*clearmarkall 1
foreach sys $sysID {
    *createmark systems 1 'by id' $sysID
    *showentitybymark 1 1 2
    *reviewentity systems 'by id' $sys 3 1 0
    hm_redraw
    tk_messageBox -message 'see is it ok' 
    *resetreview
}

Best Regards,

Vikas Kumar

Hi Livil,

Can we get system 'reference and displacement' node by using tcl\tk script.

It's very urgent.

Hi Vikas,

I'm not sure of what you mean by reference and displacement, Please refer to Datanames of system and nodes which can be queried using hm_getentityvalue.

Hi VIpin,

But in this method how to check which is assigned node and which one is referenced node.

It is returning both.

Vikas Kumar

set x [hm_getvalue systems id=52dataname=originnodeid] ;  # returning 0 because system is not defined by node it's just a system located at that position .

As Vipin suggests

*createmark nodes 1 'equal to value' inputsystemid $sysID

=> reference system

*createmark nodes 1 'equal to value' outputsystemid $sysID

=> displacement system

And tinh,

How we can review like this. as shown in image.

Using *reviewentity is a good ideal

Nope it's not working as shown in image.
