GiD forum

Hello and thank you for your advise.

I think that is the only way to achive my goals. Initialy I thought that
the only information i needed was the surface Id. But I found no way to
extract the elements (3D elements) that have one face belonging to a
given surface. (maybe there is one i didn't find).

So the second way would be to use conditions. But I'm sure how can I
make a dialog window where i can assign two conditions, one for the
master surface and the second for the slave surface. Can you give me
some indications in this way?

Thank you,

1) You can store the surface element's source, inside autocalculated field of a condition.

QUESTION: Surface_number#FUNC#(NumEntity)
VALUE: 0
STATE: hiddden

2) To learn to make a dialog window, read the chapter 3 of this advanced course documentation:
http://www.gidhome.com/2002/material_courses.subst

To select GiD entities from Tcl/Tk, can use this user procedure (defined inside /scripts/dev_kit.tcl)

proc GidUtils::PickEntities { type selectmode }
# It returns the enties identifier numbers (for example 1 3 5:8 represents 1 3 5 6 7 8)
# type can be "Points" "Lines" "Surfaces" "Volumes" "Nodes" or "Elements"
# selectmode can be "single" or "multiple"

For example:
set surf [::GidUtils::PickEntities Surfaces single]

The file dev_kit.tcl contain some GiD-Tcl developer utilities (to be documented)
