*adaptive_wrapper_set_features

Assigns/extracts features for the adaptive wrapper mesher.

Syntax

*adaptive_wrapper_set_features feature_type mark_id feature_angle clean_features cleanup_tol

Type

HyperMesh Tcl Modify

Description

This command assigns/extracts features for the adaptive wrapper mesher.

This command must be called after *adaptive_wrapper_init and before *adaptive_wrapper_build.

Inputs

feature_type
The feature extraction scheme. Valid values are:
1 - Simple feature extraction
2 - Connected feature extraction
3 - User defined features
4 - Do not use features
mark_id
The mark ID containing user-defined plotel feature elements. Valid values are 1 and 2.
Only used if feature_type is 3.
feature_angle
If feature_type is 1 or 2, this is the feature angle used for feature extraction.
clean_features
1 - Cleans features based on feature overlap. This is used to avoid excessive refinement.
cleanup_tol
If clean_feature is 1, this is the tolerance used to check for feature overlap.

Errors

Incorrect usage results in a Tcl error. To detect errors, you can use the catch command:
if { [ catch {command_name...} ] } {
   # Handle error
}
