hm_tabletomark

Append the entity IDs from the named table to the specified mark.

Syntax

hm_tabletomark table_name mark_id

Type

HyperMesh Tcl Query Command

Description

This command appends the entity IDs stored in table_name to mark mark_id. Valid mark_ids are 1 and 2.

Tables are not stored within a HyperMesh database (.hm file). When the current model is deleted or a new model is loaded, all tables are cleared.

If a table contains an entity that is subsequently deleted, the entity is removed from the table. Renumbering does not modify the entity IDs stored in the table.

Example

To put the elements from table elem_table on element mark 1:

hm_tabletomark elem_table 1

Errors

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

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

If table_name does not exist, you will get the following error:

hm_marktotable: the table <table_name> was not found.

If mark_id is invalid, you will get the following error:

hm_marktotable: invalid mark mask <mark_id> specified, must be either 1 or 2.

If mark_id is empty, and ?force? is not specified or is specified as 0:

hm_marktotable: no entities were found on the mark.
