    Sorry for the miscommunication..

    I am asking about  *createmark 'on plane' ..can we search elements in particular component while searching for elements using createmark 'on plane' .

    One more question..

    Can we define direction while searching closestnodes using hm_getclosestnode.

    Say i want to get closest nodes which are  in 'X' direction.ignore if any node is close to 'z-dir' then 'x-dir'.

    Thank you pandurang for ur help
