! TITLE: entity_group.mac (CALCULATION) ! ! ! OBJECTIVE: ! ! This sub-macro stores into component groups all selected entities, or ! reselects the component groups. ! ! COMMAND SYNTAX: ! ! (1) ! ENTITY_GROUP, restore ! ! ! ARGUMENTS: ! ! (1) restore = reselects the currently stored entity groups formed as ! a result of execution of this macro. ! ! 0 (or blank) = store all selected entities into respective ! component group types. ! ! 1 = select component groups (created as a result of execution ! of this macro with this argument set to 0 (or blank)), and ! delete the component groups. ! ! -1 = select component groups (created as a result of execution ! of this macro with this argument set to 0 (or blank)), and ! DO NOT delete the component groups. ! ! ! DESCRIPTION: ! ! Execution of this macro with the 'restore' argument set to 0 (or blank) ! will store all the currently selected entities in the model database into ! their respective component groups with specified reserved names (see code ! below). After any set of analysis or querying operations that result in sel- ! ecting or unselecting any entities, one may restore that database to the ! selected set of entities after the operations are performed. For example, ! if a set of operations are performed on a selected set of (previously ! stored) entities, that set may be restored by executing this macro with ! a 1 in the 'restore' argument. ! ! ! ! *get,prkey_,active,0,prkey /nopr ! rest_=arg1 ! *if,rest_,eq,0,then cm,kestr__,kp cm,lestr__,line cm,aestr__,area cm,vestr__,volu cm,nestr__,node cm,eestr__,elem *elseif,rest_,eq,1,then cmsel,s,kestr__ cmsel,s,lestr__ cmsel,s,aestr__ cmsel,s,vestr__ cmsel,s,nestr__ cmsel,s,eestr__ ! cmdele,kestr__ cmdele,lestr__ cmdele,aestr__ cmdele,vestr__ cmdele,nestr__ cmdele,eestr__ *elseif,rest_,eq,-1,then cmsel,s,kestr__ cmsel,s,lestr__ cmsel,s,aestr__ cmsel,s,vestr__ cmsel,s,nestr__ cmsel,s,eestr__ *endif ! *set,rest_, ! *if,prkey_,eq,1,then /go *endif
