CHECK

CHECK, Sele, Levl
Checks current database items for completeness.

Valid Products: Pro | Premium | Enterprise | PrepPost | Solver | AS add-on

Sele

Specifies which elements are to be checked:

(blank)

 — 

Check all data.

ESEL

 — 

Check only elements in the selected set and unselect any elements not producing geometry check messages. The remaining elements (those producing check messages) can then be displayed and corrected. A null set results if no elements produce a message. Issue ESEL,ALL to select all elements before proceeding.

Levl

Used only with Sele = ESEL:

WARN

 — 

Select elements producing warning and error messages.

ERR

 — 

Select only elements producing error messages (default).

Notes

This command will not work if SHPP,OFF has been set. A similar, automatic check of all data is done before the solution begins.

If the "Check Elements" option is invoked through the GUI (menu path Main Menu> Preprocessor> Meshing> Check Elems), the CHECK,ESEL logic is used to highlight elements in the following way: good elements are blue, elements having warnings are yellow, and bad (error) elements are red.

Note:  The currently selected set of elements is not changed by this GUI function.

This command is also valid in PREP7.
