How to enable Node Coordinates (Tracked) in HyperView Query using TCL?

Akash Purushothaman

I am trying to get the Node Coordinates of a body in a local coordinate system in HyperView using TCL.
Hence I am using tracking system option and using Query (Table) to fetch the results.

How to enable Node Coordinates (Tracked) in Query using TCL?
In documentation of https://2023.help.altair.com/2023.1/hwdesktop/hwd/topics/reference/tcl/poiqueryctrl_setquery.htm#error I was not able to find the option to do this.

Thanks in advance,

Hello @Akash Purushothaman

you can do a query manually through GUI, and then use below code to get the query string of it:

set t [expr rand()];

hwi GetSessionHandle mySessionName$t
mySessionName$t GetProjectHandle myProjectName$t
set pageIndex [myProjectName$t GetActivePage]
myProjectName$t GetPageHandle myPageName$t $pageIndex
set windowIndex [myPageName$t GetActiveWindow]
myPageName$t GetWindowHandle myWindowName$t $windowIndex
myWindowName$t GetClientHandle myPostName$t
set modelIndex [myPostName$t GetActiveModel]
myPostName$t GetModelHandle myModelName$t $modelIndex
myModelName$t GetQueryCtrlHandle myQueryName$t
set query_string [myQueryName$t GetQuery]
puts "$query_string"

For your case it is "node.trackcoords"
