TCL Script doesn't run correctly in Hypermesh
Altair EmployeeHi,
I have written a script in TCL that changes the material properties using an automatic number generator. The script works when I write it into the console, (The interpreter at the bottom of the page, not sure of the correct name). But when I run the script using the run TCL script button nothing happens. I have attached the script. It changes the material properties of a MAT9ORT card. Can someone take a look at my script and give me some advice on how it can be changed to run correctly.
I have also attached my hm file for which I am attempting to change the material properties.
Kind Regards,
Laurence Maskell
Altair EmployeeHi,
Thank you! I made that alteration and the script is functioning partially correctly. The material properties are changing in accordance with the random number generator, but I get an error saying Error 0. (see attached) When I press ok the material properties are changed but this error message is a problem, how can I remove it?
Kind Regards,
Laurence
Hi,
This error is because there is no component with id 2 in the model.
*setvalue comps id=2 propertyid={props 1}
Hi,
Please remove all return statements, it is not required.
return is used to return values when using procedures, in this case it will exit the program.
