Since Hypermesh 2024 has complete Python support, I want to intigrate already exisiting TCL tools into my python workflow. Is there a way to do that, which isnt rewriting the whole toolbox.
Hi Dominique,
You can call Tcl code from the Python interpreter/console using the hw.evalTcl function. Please note any returned value will come through to Python as a string.
Thanks,

Thank you alot for your answer, it has been very helpful. Another question I had is, is it possible to immediately start executing a python file upon start up like a tcl script with the -tcl start option
Yes, you can use the -f option followed by the path to the Python script when calling the runhwx.exe executable. You can also achieve this by deploying a script as part of an Extension.
