Abaqus scripting GetClosest command

Abaqus scripting GetClosest command

(OP)
Hi,


I'm trying to use the getClosest command.
When using the vertices.findAt command for specific coordinates, I do get a
vertex object as return.

When using vertices.getClosest, the return object is a dictionary object as the scripting manual says.
However this isn't accepted as an argument in vertices.

For example X = ...Instance.getClosest((coordinates=(x,y,z),))
I tried stuff like X[0][0] but it doesn't work.



So my question is whether anyone knows how to use the getclosest command?
