Hello All,

 

Are there any scripting language that can be utilized in simlab, in order to automate the meshing process?

 

Besides, does simlab creates a command file such as .cmf file like hypermesh?

The languages used by Sl are Javascript and Python.

After starting the recording process, you are asked which language you want to use.

While recording the process, please select groups of entities so that you can re-run the process on other models using the same groups (and body) names.

Check the section SCRIPTING in the SimLab Help for more information.

FYI: in Altair Connect, in the Download Documentation section, you can download SimLab tutorials for SL 2017 including Automation Tutorials for the script recording into Python and JavaScript.

Dear Alessio,

Thank you for your support. I tryed to find SL 2017 deocument in Altair connect but, there is tutorials for SL 14 and older versions. In other words, I could not find the tutorial that you suggested.

Can you describe how to find that document?

Hello,

Thanks for sharing the screen shot for both versions. I enabled the tool measurement and is very helpful. However I still dont have those 4 tabs. My tabs start from section properties. Please Help.

Also I want to run some examples of of python scripts for simlab. I found an option to activate python tab. Please can you mention how to run the python script in Simlab

sincerely,

Hi, the Automation Tutorials are available in the download area of Altair Connect (in the section Documentation)

thanks for responding.

I been look through all download area of Altair Connect

but it is hard to find the exact location 

could you please specify the directory of the tutorial?

for example, documentation>User Manuals>?

For Version 2019, go to Documentation>Totorial and you'll find SimLab Automation Tutorials

Is there any way to get documentation for scripting in .sls file too, like what we have in SimLab help for Python and JS ?

Or list of APIs used in .sls scripting by SimLab ?

Hi All,

I am preparing a script for an assembly FE modeling and i want to add pause and play button within the script so as to perform manual operation and than again switching to the script.

I have got some example from tutorial like below

1. SimLabUtility.CommentMessagePopUp('Check Aspect Ratio (< 20) quality for Tri element. If failed element present, clean up and continue.');..This is an comment msg pop up 

2.bStatus = True
msgBox = simlab.pauseprocess('Do group transfer. Incase of any failure, please do manual cleanup.\n Click \'Yes\' to continue the process \n or click \'No\' to stop the script execution.',title='SimLab',Button1='Yes',Button2='No')
if msgBox.status == False:
    bStatus = False

#if user click 'Yes' continue the script.
if bStatus == True:

But i am unable to frame those into my script.

Any help will be more appreciated..

Thanks
