Hi, I am able to create collector with name like set of elements name, which includes that element from that specify set. Could You help me to automatize that process. I have lots of entity sets and it would be great to run some tcl macro which will do job for me. I tried to looked up in command.tcl but when i use organize function it shows elements number for each elements set - that I cant use for tcl macro.

 

Best regards

Jakub

    Hi. 

     

    *createmarkpanel sets 1 'Select sets:'

    foreach setname [hm_getvalue sets mark=1 dataname=name] {

         if {![hm_entityinfo exist comps $setname -byname]} {

              *collectorcreateonly comps $setname '' 1

         }

         *createmark elems 1 'by set name' $setname

         if {[hm_marklength elems 1]} {

              *movemark elems 1 $setname

         }

    }
