Thanks Tinh,

one query...

what is use of --> {*}

It is to expand a tcl list (from version 8.5), instead of using eval command

so you provide IDs (multiple argument) to *createmark but not a list of them (one argument)

Hi,

One query

How do i interpret the return value of puts $Types.

If it is printing 2 what does that mean ?

1 is mass

2 is plot

Hi,

Thanks for the reply

From knowing 2 is plot how can i make out whether the selected component contains 2d 0r 3d elements

I think my script already returned '2d' or '3d' or both, depends on what you selected. Do you see it?
