    I think it should be work fine, other options are following.

     

    *createmark elems 1 'by config' 2;

    or

    *createmark elems 1 'by comp name' ^edges

     

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    How to find only CBAR or CBEAM elements out of the displayed elements?

    Ï tried with,


    *createmark elems 2 'displayed'
    *createmark elems 1 'by config type' 1 bar2

     

    It is providing both CBAR and CBEAM elements. I wan to find only CBAR/CBEAM

     

    Thanks

    @tinh

    Thanks for quick Help.

    I tried

    *createmark elems 1 'by config type' bar2   this command but it is giving wrong output. It is giving CONMASS elements instead of CBEAM/CBAR.

     

    Can you give another solution?

    Hi,

     

    I am trying to find the configuration of a selected set of entities using tcl. Are there any commands built for this?

     

    thanks in advance,

    usually you can accomplish this by using the 'hm_getvalue' command for many datanames available in HM.

    Take a look at the documentation for this command and also the documentation for 'datanames' to check all the datanames that can be queried for each entity.

     

    example:

    hm_getvalue elems id=10000 dataname=config

    hm_getvalue elems id=10000 dataname=configname
