Measure function in hyperwork

Armin2020

Hi everyone,

I would like to know the function used for the Measure tool in HyperWorks. I checked the documentation and noticed that running the Measure function in HyperWorks does not record any commands in the command history section. Additionally, I could not find any useful information about this in the documentation. I want to use this in TCL for automation purposes.

Hello @Armin2020 ,

there is no direct API corresponding to the interactive Measure tool.

That said there are couple of API commands that can help:

hm_getangle

hm_measureshortestdistance

hm_measureshortestdistance2

Hope that helps,

Michael
