The following entities are known:
Wildcards (*) can be used to search for setnames of a certain expression. In this case all sets matching the expression will be listed:
prnt se N*
lists all sets starting with 'N'. To see the contents of a specific set, type
prnt se setName
Please see ”mshp” for details about etyp, attr and ”elty” about lock. In case the “stack” was activated the value and the coordinates of stored nodes are written to the stack. The content of the stack can be listed with:
prnt st
The index and the value are written. The value with the highest index is addressed next. The number of stack entries (the size) can be enquired (and written to the stack) with:
prnt st si
A model summary (info) is listed with:
prnt in
which will list the number of mesh- and geometric entities. In addition it lists the hidden entity 'edge' which are the free element edges. This number has to be zero in case of a closed surface triangulation which is required for tet-meshing.
To print the definition of a line, type:
prnt l lineName
An eventually assigned alias name for a given entity can be enquired with a leading question mark:
prnt l ?lineName
For elements and nodes is an additional parameter “range” availabe. In this case the range of node- or element-numbers will be displayed (max and min nr) and holes in the numbering are detected:
prnt n setname range
If an ccx- or abaqus-input-file was read then it is also possible to print the amplitudes (*AMPLITUDE in ccx) or the material-propperties (*MATERIAL in ccx), wildcards (*) can be used:
prnt amp amplitude-name
prnt mat material-name
If an ccx result file was read then the user headers (meta data)
prnt usr
and parameters of each dataset can be listed and written to the stack with either
prnt par
to list all parameters of the active dataset or a single one like for example
prnt par STEP
can be listed and written to the stack (see stack). The available colors are listed with
prnt col
See “col” on how to define or redefine colors.
The element quality is checked by using
prnt eq setName
The failed elements are stored in set “-NJBY”. See “eqal” on how to set the criterions.
Several other but not all parameters of this command writes to the ”stack”.
