Hello everybody,

I am working on a API script which is applying a laod from a scource to target model. I have managed to do that, but with a help of a dialog box to pick element and faces.

My question is:
Does anybody have an idea how to pick up element faces from all the elements located on different surfaces without a dialog box.

I am searching to speed up the process, because of many load cases.
I thought about getting ID's ftom "Get array" but for faces I run out of ideas.

Thank for help.

Regards,
Jendrooh

Dear Jendrooh,

Please drop the API file here to help us better understand your problem.

Thanx.
 
Dear Compositecurves,

I have solved the problem. The array of face IDs and element IDs was not defined properly.
Thank you for replying, I will keep in mind to attach the code next time.

Regards,
Jendrooh
