[GiDlist] Problem with "combobox" component in TCL/TK

Post by Juan Pablo Dorsch »

Hi there, this is my first post in this mailing list. I'm new developing
interfaces in GiD using TCL/TK.
I have a problem when I try to put a ttk::combobox component for a problem
type in a frame in GiD: the stacktrace returns this:

*invalid command name "ttk::combobox"*

But when I run that code in Wish85 I don't have any trouble.
Does anybody know what could be happening?

Hi Juan Pablo,

ttk::combobox is working in GiD

A really basic example, write the following sentence at the command line
of GiD, (-np-) is to start a tcl command:

-np- toplevel .t; pack [ttk::combobox .t.cb -values {0 1 2}]

If you continue having problems, send me an example to
amelendo at cimne.upc.edu

Adrià Melendo from GiD Team

Hi, Adria:


I ran the code you wrote in the command line of gid and it comes up again:
"invalid command name "ttk::combobox"". I found a solution for my problem
with tk_optionMenu under GiD 8... I thing that might be my problem, using
an old version of GiD.
I'll try on GiD 11. Thanks for everything, bye!

Post by amelendo »

Hi Juan Pablo,

The tcl version of GiD 8 do not accept "ttk" commands, you can see the
version of tcl going to:
"Help-About" and click "More" button

For example:
GiD: 8.0.9 is using Tcl8.4.12

Regards,

[GiDlist] changing size of the legend

Post by Tom Probst »

Hello all,

I found out a way how to change the size of the legend font but did not
find out a way how to change the whole size of the legend. I want to it to
be as high as my screen for example because then there is a chance to do a
screenshot with the legend and my FE-model in which it is possible to read
the legend. If I do it without changing the size of the legend, it is to
small to read.

Thanks and best regards!

[GiDlist] Extrusion - surface to volume

Post by Manish Roy »

Hello,
I am trying to generate a volume by extruding a surface using the Utilities | Copy command in Atena Science Static (v4.3.1)-GiD (v11.0) interface. But the volume is not getting generated after executing the command; only 5 new surfaces, 8 new lines, and 4 new points are generated. The opposite two corners of the original rectangular surface are (0,0) and (0.00127,0.00127) in meter and it is extruded in the Z-direction by 0.00127 m.
Interestingly, when the surface is much bigger (the opposite corners are (0,0) and (0.1,0.1) in meter) and the extrusion distance is 0.1 m in the Z-direction, the volume is generated. I was wondering if there is any dimensional restriction in creating a geometry in GiD.
Thank you for your time.
Regards,
Manish

[GiDlist] Extrusion - surface to volume

Post by escolano »

Hello Manish,



You are right, the extruded volume is not created now if its volume size is
smaller than 1e-7 units (and in this case the volume is 2.05e-9)

We will fix it for next GiD versions using a relative tolerance (relative to
some the model size) instead an absolute tolerance

[GiDlist] Extrusion - surface to volume

Post by Manish Roy »

Hello Enrique,
Thanks for your reply. I could generate the volume by executing Geometry | Create | Volume | By Contour command from the 6 surfaces generated by the Utilities | Copy (surface to volume extrusion) command (which originally failed to generate the volume due to the absolute tolerance mentioned in your reply). Do you think the generated volume will correctly represent my geometry?
It is important for me to work with such small volume with a large unit of measurement (meter).
Thanks,
Manish

[GiDlist] Extrusion - surface to volume

Post by escolano »

Yes, the volume created after ‘by contour surfaces’ is similar that the one
created during the extrusion, without the related size limitation

that try to avoid the creation of invalid zero size volumes that can’t be
meshed (for example in case of creation of a copy with translation=0,0,0)



In general is recommended to work with model sizes not very small or very
large, because several algorithms depends on tolerances, and also to have
less numerical rounding error.

It is possible to generate the model with a ‘close to one size’ and finally
scale the model (Move-Scale) to set the unit size required for the
calculation.

[GiDlist] changing size of the legend

Post by escolano »

You can try to move the legend where you want, with

Utilities-Tools-Move screen objects

Then click on the legend, and drag it and click again the destination place
