HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command

Trims the input CAD and/or FE surfaces by selected list of element edges.

surf_mark=<mark_id>: The ID of the mark containing the input surfaces. Valid values are 1 and 2.
edge_list=<value>: The list of element edges represented by start and end node IDs of each edge.

To trim the surface ID 3425 by the list of element edges defined by node ID pairs 1098-1096, 1034-1100, 1034-1035, and 1100-1098:

*createmark surfaces 1 3425
*surfacemarksplitwithelemedges surf_mark=1 "edge_list=1098-1096 1034-1100 1034-1035 1100-1098"

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