Hello Tinh,

 

 Coming back to forum after couple of months!!

I am facing difficulty using the SetDataType command in the ContourCtrl  class of Hyperview 

Though I can set the query to Displacement, Grid Point Stresses(Prop 1),etc but I am not able to  choose  sub options like  Mag,X,Y,Z and Von Mises ,Signed VonMises, respectively.How do I do it ?

 

Your help is very much appreciated !!

Thanks and Regards,

Girish

Hi, 

use SetDataComponent command

Girish2121

Yes it works !! 

 

With respect to the Hyperview help on Tcl/TK Classes , the description on SetDataComponent is a bit misleading. It says the options can be either node,line,shell or solid.

 

Can  you elaborate  on the following classes(with significance to displaying a contour plot) :

1. SetDataComponent

2.SetShellLayer

3. SetDimensionEnabled 

tinh

Yes, hw help has some mistake while explaining functions

I do not ever use above functions, I just guess.

so SetDataComponent => will set component of DataType, example: DataType=Displacement, DataComponent=X

 

it's better for you to try some values, and then look for any affect

Hello tinh,

Greetings !!

      I intend to read  all the labels of the entity sets available in a HyperView Model file. How should I do it ?

I tried using GetSelectionSetHandle command, but it requires that I get the handle for each set then read the label .

Something similar to GetSelectionSetList  will be helpful or any other method ?

 

Regards,

Girish

Yes, do a loop through all sets, get handle and label of each one and append it to a list

finally print this list of all labels
