How can I retrieve the element ID as shown in the entity editor via *createmark
Hello,
I have a model where the same element ID is used for structural elements (Cquad) and cweld elements. I want to retrieve the element IDs of all cwelds in the model in tcl, so I used
*createmark elem 2 "by config type" 0 mass CWELD
But now I retrieve other IDs than the ones visible in the entity editor for the cwelds. How can I get to those ID numbers instead of the internal ones in my tcl script.
Best regards
Isabella

do you have a sample model, to test this?

In this model, cweld IDs 2010 and 2011 also exist as cquad cards. When I create an element mark containing the cwelds, the resulting ids stored in these marks (read by hm_getmark), I recieve ids different to 2010 and 2011. My question is how to get from these new internal ids back to the original 2010 and 2011.
