set nodelist [hm_nodelist $elemid]
set n1 [lindex $nodelist 0]
set n2 [lindex $nodelist 1]
set n3 [lindex $nodelist 2]
set n4 [lindex $nodelist 3]
I have a question: when I retrieve the nodes of an element like this, how is the order of the nodes determined?
For example, does n1
always correspond to a specific location in the element, such as top-right, bottom-left, etc.? Or does the order depend on element orientation, ID, or something else?
