Hi there all,
First of all, in this mail there are some questions about Rambshell. Since
it is very close to GiD I have decided to send them here. Sorry for the
inconvenience.
I have just downloaded the last Rambshell Demo version and am doing a
simulation in which I have several similar models, just differing in the
geometric dimensions (same loads and boundary conditions), so I am writing a
Python script to automatize the preprocessing and (I hope) postprocessing of
the different models. Now, I have some doubts:
1) How can you call a function which is proper of Rambshell and not of GiD?
v.g. In GiD you can create a line by escape escape escape geometry create
line p1 p2, but, how can you, for example assign a load onto a surface in
Rambshell?
2) How can I save Rambshell Graphs made by Integrate-Graphs option?
Thanks in advance,
Jesús Torrecilla

[GiDlist] Scripts over customized problems
1) How can you call a function which is proper of Rambshell and not of GiD?
v.g. In GiD you can create a line by escape escape escape geometry create
line p1 p2, but, how can you, for example assign a load onto a surface in
Rambshell?
Exist two order types:
a) GiD internal process orders, for example, "escape geometry create line"
b) tcl orders defined by the problem type interface (or standard GiD scripts), for example,
"WarnWinText" to show a message in a tcl window
Only the first type a) can be used directly in a batch file
To see tha syntax or some orders, use this commands, and see the order list of the Undo window
For example, in RamBShell, to assign a condition named "Puctual_Load" with some values (Fx=Fy=Mx=My=Mz=0, and Fz=-5.3) to the nodes 5 and 6 use:
escape escape escape escape data cond assign Punctual_Load change N-m 0.0 0.0 -5.3 0.0 0.0 0.0
5 6
escape
It is possible also try to execute some TCL command (type b) in a batch file with the special order *****TCL
*****TCL tcl_command
Note: If this command is used in batch file and GiD is invoked with option -n it will not work. To make TCL commands execute when GiD is executed without any window, you should use the -n2 option. (see section INVOKING GiD)
If the tcl command is defined in the problem type, this problemtype must be loaded before using this procedure.
2) How can I save Rambshell Graphs made by Integrate-Graphs option?
This graphs are created in tcl by RamBShell interface without GiD intervention, It is not possiblo to save this graphs.
Only is available to copy the graph data points to the clipboard (menu copy) to past manually in a text file, and create the graph
for example with Microsoft Excel.

[GiDlist] Scripts over customized problems
Hello,
In addition to all the good advide that Enrique has already given,
two more details:
- If you use copy in a Rambshell graphs, you can directly paste
into Excel or any other spreadsheet.
- If you use TCL, you have the disadvantage that you need to
learn a new language, but the advantage that you can integrate
your modification code inside GiD and gain total control over
the program. To do so, it is possible to check the TCL files both
inside the Rambshell problemtype and in the scripts section of
GiD.
Best regards,
