Edit for MeshSetup Commands

For existing mesh operations excitations, the Edit command can be used to change mesh operation properties. To use this command, first call the MeshSetup module, and then with the Edit command, specify the name of the mesh operation and then the properties of that particular mesh operation. For example, to change the properties of a Length-Based mesh operation:

oModule = oDesign.GetModule("MeshSetup")

oModule.Edit("Length1",

[

"NAME:Length1",

"RefineInside:=" , True,

"Enabled:=" , True,

"RestrictElem:=" , False,

"NumMaxElem:=" , "1000",

"RestrictLength:=" , True,

"MaxLength:=" , "15mm"

])

Important:

The Edit command replaces the EditMeshOpName commands of previous releases.

Note:

The Edit command cannot be used to change the entity that the mesh operation is assigned to. To change the entity, use one of the following commands:

UI Access

Right click on the mesh operation undernearth the Mesh entry in the Project Manager tree, and select Properties

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
<Name>	String	Name of the mesh operation to be edited.
<Properties>	Array	Structured array. The required contents of this array is determined by the type of mesh operation specified in the Name parameter. See the corresponding AssignMeshOpName topic for a list of properties that can be edited.

Return Value

None
