Hey guys,
I'm now working on a small case where a plate in inserted in two layers of soil. The soil and plate models are also imported from .dxf file.
The plate is imported as a whole line and I created the plate as well as the interfaces as a whole line, in the script below:
The plate and the interfaces are stored in their own list "plates[]" and "posinterfaces[]"/"neginterfaces[]". But when it comes to the staged construction, the plate and interfaces are split by the soil layer
I can't really use the posinterfaces[] or plates[] to activate the plate and the interfaces, as shown in the script here. Instead, I have to use the two commented lines to activate the plate and the interfaces.
Got two questions here:
1. How can I use the plate[] and posinterfaces[] lists that I create myself to activate these elements in the staged construction? Do I have to use g_i.Plates? Or is there a smarter way to realise what I want here? The reason I want to use self-created lists is such that I can activate only the elements I want to activate without having to know their id in g_i.Plates when there are more plates in the model (the example I show here is very simple). Say, if I have two plates, then I know the order they are saved in my list "plates[]". But if I have to use g_i.Plates, I'll have to first know which is saved in which g_i.Plates[1?2?...]
2. Didn't find in the mannual how can I activate for example only positive interfaces? Because if I use g_i.Interfaces, it's all interfaces. Is there anything like g_i.PosInterfaces?
Thanks a lot in advance!
