Control node number at line ends
Control node number at line ends
(OP)
Hello,
I've got a model that is made from beam elements. I've created it from keypoints and then lines. For the first line the nodes at either end are numbered 1 and 2, whereas the nodes in between are numbered 3....n.
I'd rather the nodes were numbered 1,2,...n instead so that it will make some of the later selection of nodes based on position easier. Is there a way to do this? I thought the NUMCMP command might be do this, but it only removes 'missing' numbers rather than renumbering the nodes as I wish. Is there a way to control the node numbers? I think I can work around it but that might allow errors to creep in.
Many thanks
George
