Command Files
Command files can be used to create new command scripts that perform automation, or to recover previously performed steps.
While HyperLife Weld Certification is open it generates a Tcl file named command<#>.tcl on Windows, and command.tcl on Linux. This file is created at the start of a HyperLife Weld Certification session if it does not exist. If the file already exists, HyperLife Weld Certification adds the commands for the new session to the end of the original file.
Each time HyperLife Weld Certification performs an operation that modifies something in the
database (such as, create an entity, modify a value, import a model, and so on) the Tcl commands that are used to perform the operation, as well as any subsidiary
commands, are written to the command file. These commands are known as HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command. As an example, if you are in the Delete panel and decide to delete all of the elements in the model, the commands written out
are:
*createmark elements 1 "all"
*deletemark elements 1You can access the command file by clicking on the menu bar.
