Description
Updates a topology design variable.
Inputs
- markmask
- The mark that contains the components.
- name
- The name of the design variable.
- basethickness
- The base thickness of the components (applies to only PSHELL components).
- designthickness
- Total thickness of the components (applies to only PSHELL components).
- componenttype

Examples
To update a design variable "dv1" to reference an existing PSHELL components "psh1" and "psh2" with a base thickness of 2.1 and total thickness of 3.5:
*createmark(components,1) "psh1" "psh2"
*topologydesvarupdate(1,"dv1",2.1,3.5,1)
To update a design variable "dv2" to reference an existing PSOLID component "psol1":
*createmark(components,1) "psol2"
*topologydesvarupdate(1,"dv2",0,0,2)
Errors
None.
