How to get attached elem list for a given elem id in hyperview using tcl command?

Adriano_Koga

please, take a look at the "SelectionSet Add" command.

First you add a particular element, and then you add again, by using the 'attached' option.

There is an example in the documentation of this command, as you can see below.

poISelectionSet Add

Adds entities to the selection set.

Syntax

selectionSet_handle Add <PoolName> selection

Note: PoolName only applies to: id, idlist, selectionset, MaxofSet, and MinofSet.

If the <PoolName> is not specified, then the User_Set pool is considered the default.

Application

HyperView Tcl Modify

Description

This command adds entities specified by the argument selection to the current selection set (for example, Add "id 1", Add "id = 1").

Inputs

selection

To see a detailed list of possibilities use the GetSelectByList command on the selection set (and also take a look at the list and examples below):

"id"

Selects entities based on a single id or range of ids. IDs can also be selected using operators like: <, <=, >, >=.

"idlist"

Comma separated list of IDs and ID ranges. IDs can also be selected using operators like: <, <=, >, >=.

"all"

Selects all of the entities and adds them to the set. The entities that are added depend upon the SetSelectMode flag.

"displayed"

Selects the displayed entities and adds them to the set.

"component"

Selects entities belonging to a component id.

"component_name"

Selects entities belonging to a component name.

"contour"

Selects entities based on a contour value. The contour value can also be combined with operators like <, <=, >, >=, as well as keywords like "Top N", "Bottom N", "MaxofSet", and "MinofSet" (see the contour section of the example below).

"selectionset"

Selects entities base on another selection set.

"sphere"

Selects entities which lie inside the specified sphere center and radius.

"adjacent"

Selects entities which are adjacent to the existing entities in the set. One layer of adjacency is used.

"attached"

Selects entities which are attached to the existing entities in the set. This selects all of the entities recursively until no attached entities are found.

"dimension"

Selects entities based on a specified dimension (for example, 1d elements, 2d elements, or 3d elements).

"config"

Selects elements based on the element configuration. For example, "config 103" means tria elements. This configuration matches with the HyperMesh configuration. The following configurations are available in HyperView:

1D

1-MASS; 2-PLOT; 3-WELD; 5-RIGID; 21-SPRING; 22-JOINT; 55-RIGIDLINK; 56-RBE3; 60-BAR; 61-ROD; 63-BAR3; 70-GAP

2D

103-TRIA3; 104-QUAD4; 106-TRIA6; 108-QUAD8

3D

204-TETRA4; 205-PYRAMID5; 206-PENTA6; 208-HEX8; 210-TETRA10; 213- PYRAMID13; 215-PENTA15; 220-HEX20;

"face"

Selects entities on the face of the entities that are already selected in the current selection set. This rule assumes that there is at least one entity already existing in the set.

"plane"

Selects entities on a plane with a given normal direction, base point coordinates and a tolerance value.

In addition to these rules, a Reverse rule can be used for appropriate entities which will reverse the current selection in the set. Please follow its usage in the example.

Example

To create a selection set for nodes and use Add to demonstrate some of the possible selections:
