Is there a TCL command to identify if 1d elements exist in current model?

Many thanks,

    Hi Matt,

     

    Try creating an element mark using 'by config' and add all 1d configurations you need, then check for the mark length.

     

    *createmark elems 1 'by config' bar2 bar3 gap rod weld joint plot
    set elem_count [hm_marklength elems 1]
