*modent_clonebymark
Creates instances of existing modular entities.
Syntax
*modent_clonebymark modular_entity_type input_mark_id output_mark_id ?copy_contents=<value>? ?delta_matrix=<value>?
Type
HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command
Description
Creates instances of existing modular entities, that is, it adds a new instance on their prototypes and realizes the newly created occurrences.
Before cloning a subsystem its representation must be saved.
Inputs
- modular_entity_type
- The type of modular entity to be cloned. Currently only supported for subsystems.
- input_mark_id
- The ID of the mark containing the entities to be cloned. Valid values are 1 and 2.
- output_mark_id
- The ID of the mark containing the entities that have been cloned as a result. Valid values are 1 and 2.
- copy_contents=<value>
- 0 – Do not clone contents on the cloned modular entity.
- delta_matrix=<value>
- The transformation to apply to the cloned modular entity in respect to its cloned initial position.
Examples
*createmark subsystems 1 2 3
*modent_clonebymark subsystems 1 2 copy_contents=1 delta_matrix={1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 100 0 0 1}
