Hi there
I use FEMAP since a couple years now but never tried to optimize my work using API's.
The following problem use a lot of time and is quite an annoying work
If I want to remesh a complete structure I used to reset all RBE3's in my model to a single node not connected to anything. This gives me the oportunity to delete the solid mesh, import the new geometry and mesh the new geometry. After that I easily can reconnect all my RBE3's with the new meshed geometry.
There are a lot of RBE3's in my models so this is quite an annoying work to click through the menue and to /reset /nodes /previous /OK ... repeat and repeat...
I know another way is to delete all the RBE3's. For me this is not an option because using my way I know, that I reconnected all the existing RBE3's and I didn't forget anything.
I'm sure this is possible using an API script. I tried it using Program Files and recorded my action and than repeated the codes for the actions but this doesn't work properly.
I saw API's which were able to change the dependent and independent nodes of an RBE so I'm quite sure there are API-pro's which can help me further.
Would be great if someone can assist me or help me with an API which is similar to my problem which I can adjust. I'm really an API beginner. One can say - to lazy up now.
Best regards, Marcel
