Syntax

*assignidpooltocweldelements

Type

HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command

Description

Nastran has a separate ID pool for cweld elements, which is cweld_idpool. In OptiStruct, cweld falls under structural_idpool. When you load a model in OptiStruct and switch profiles to Nastran, cweld elements should fall under cweld_idpool in Nastran and under structural_idpool in OptiStruct and vice-versa.

Examples

To keep cweld elements under the correct ID pools in OptiStruct and Nastran profiles:
*assignidpooltocweldelements

Errors

Incorrect usage results in a Tcl error. To detect errors, you can use the catch command:
if { [ catch {command_name...} ] } {
   # Handle error
}
