GiD forum

Hello,

When I select some entities in GiD using the procedure:
Utilities::PickEntities the result may be in the form 1:4.
Can you suggest me a way of transforming this interval in a list with
all the components {1 2 3 4}?

Thank you,

I will be out of the office starting 19May2003 and will not return until
29May2003.

Hi, you can do the following

proc ExpandGIDSelection { sellist } {
set result

• foreach sel $sellist {
  if {[llength [set range [split $sel :]]]==1} {
  lappend result $range
  } else {
  foreach {from to} $range break
  while {$from=$to} {
  lappend result $from
  incr from
  }
  }
  }
  # you can also use: return $result
  set result
  }
  
  best regards,

This is another sample procedure, inverse of you want: convert the selection list from "expanded style" to "compact style"

#sellist must be a list of positive integer numbers (e.g, a GiD entities selection)
proc CompactGIDSelection{ sellist } {
set ret ""
set istart 0
foreach i [lsort -integer $sellist] {
if { !$istart} {
set istart $i
} else {
if {$i != [expr $iprev+1]} {
if { $istart != $iprev } {
if { [expr $istart +1] == $iprev } {
append ret "$istart $iprev "
} else {
append ret "$istart:$iprev "
}
} else {
append ret "$istart "
}
set istart $i
}
}
set iprev $i
}
if { $istart } {
if { $istart != $iprev } {
if { [expr $istart +1] == $iprev } {
append ret "$istart $iprev"
} else {
append ret "$istart:$iprev"
}
} else {
append ret "$istart"
}
}
return $ret
}
