Syntax

*renumber entity_type mark_id start_id incr_val offset_val offset_flag

Type

HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command

Description

This command renumbers the internalHyperMesh IDs for entities of entity_type contained on mark_id.

This command only renumbers HyperMesh internal IDs, even if the selected entities have solver IDs (see *renumbersolverid).

Inputs

entity_type

The type of entity selected for renumbering.

mark_id

The mark that contains the entities. Valid values are 1 and 2.

start_id

Integer value > 0 specifying the starting value.

incr_val

Integer value > 0 specifying the renumbering increment.

offset_val

Integer value to use for offsetting. Can be positive or negative as long as after renumbering all entities will have a positive ID.

offset_flag

Flag to specify whether to use offsetting:

0 Use start_id and incr_val and ignore offset_val.

1 Use offset_val and ignore start_id and incr_val.

Example

To renumber the internal HyperMesh IDs of the displayed elements starting from 100 with an increment of 1:

*createmark elems 1 displayed
*renumber elems 1 100 1 0 0

Errors
