Issue in batchmode

Hi, 

 

I have a tcl script that runs without any issues in the normal mode. However, as soon as i run it in batchmode (-batchmesher - noconsole) I does not run thru anymore. 

I figured out that the issue arises from this command: 

 

*setvalue props id=1 STATUS = 1 THICK=0.1

 

I just choose there a property and set the thickness value to 0.1. What is the problem with that in batchmode?

 

Cheers, J

    Maybe, user profile in batch mode was different

    Hmm.. tried it out with 'hm_framework loaduserprofile RadiossBlock Radioss2017' but doesn't change anything... 

    Could there be another reason?

    Why do you type 'THICK=0.1'?

    Which document did you refer to?

    Hi Tinh, 

     

    I try to set a property to the thickness 0.1. The property card is a shell element and its a radioss property card. Was that your question? 

     

    cheers, Jonas

    Of course I know it is thickness.

    But i see it is set by 431=0.1 , not THICK=0.1

    So I ask you which document guides you type THICK=0.1

    Hi Tinh, 

     

    Ah, I got you! I first had in on 431 (from the command file), but found this '431' a little strange and thought maybe this is the cause for the error. That's why I tried out with THICK which is the property name and it seems to work. However, the initial issues remains. Does it run for you in batchmode?

    I don't use batch

    Could you try with 431=0.1 ?
