*modent_addrepresentations

Adds representation information to a modular entity.

Syntax

*modent_addrepresentations entity_type entity_id representation_key representation_file representation_file_format

HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command

Adds representation information to a modular entity.

entity_type: The type of modular entity to add the representation information to. Currently only supported for subsystems.
entity_id: The ID of the modular entity.
representation_key: The key of the representation to add, which is unique per subsystem.
representation_file: The full path and file name of the representation.
representation_file_format: The representation file format. Valid values are HyperMesh, Nastran, OptiStruct, LS-DYNA, Radioss Block, PAM-CRASH 2G, and Abaqus.

Add a representation with key "crash5", file C:/representations/Subsystem1_Crash5mm.k, and format Ls-Dyna to subsystem 3:

*modent_addrepresentations subsystems 3 "crash5" "C:/representations/Subsystem1_Crash5mm.k " "Ls-Dyna"

Incorrect usage results in a Tcl error. To detect errors, you can use the catch command:

if { [ catch {command_name...} ] } {
   # Handle error
}
