Hi,
I may have missed this in the documentation, but I would like to know if
a simple method exists to get a list of mesh elements for any one one
geometric entity. For example, I need the mesh elements (nodes / edges)
for a certain surface that is a part of my geometry. Is there any
command in GiD to do that?
Thanks,
Rama Karve

[GiDlist] Mesh for a surface
GiD internally not story any link between nodes/elements and your geometric source entities.
In fact, for example, if you import directly a mesh, not exists any geometric entity.
In other hand, it's possible to create a condition with a #FUNC#(NumEntity) autocalculated field.
This field, automatically set your value to the number of the source geometric entity.
Must define some contition, for example,
NUMBER: 1 CONDITION: Surface-IDCONDTYPE: over surfacesCONDMESHTYPE: over body elemsQUESTION: Surface_number#FUNC#(NumEntity)
VALUE: 0END CONDITIONAnd assign this condition manually to all surfaces before generate the mesh(It's possible with tcl/tk script language, to automatically apply this condition to all surfaces, before the mesh generation).You can also use layers to separate nodes/elements. Each node/element is create in the same layer as the source entity.Enrique Escolano
