*morphconstraintupdateplane
Creates a plane type morphconstraint for the selected nodes with the option of having those nodes either move along the plane or be bounded by it.
Syntax
*morphconstraintupdateplane ntype nmark type mcon vec plane dist ivec color

HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command
Description
This command updates a plane type morphconstraint for the selected nodes with the option of having those nodes either move along the plane or be bounded by it.
Inputs
- ntype
- Must be set to nodes.
- nmark
- The ID of the mark for the constrained nodes. Valid values are 1 and 2.
- type
- 0 - Moves along the plane
- mcon
- The ID of the morph constraint to update.
- vec
- The ID of the vector created using *createvector. Must be set to 1.
- plane
- The ID of the plane created using *createplane. Must be set to 1.
- dist
- The minimum distance from the bounding plane.
- ivec
- 0 - The plane normal is used for distance and projection. The nodes will be moved normally to the plane when constraining them or measuring the distance the nodes are away from the plane.
- color
- The color of the constraint. Valid values are 1 through 64.
Example
To update a morphconstraint for nodes to move along a plane and projected normally to the plane:
*createmark nodes 1 1 2 3 4 5
*createvector 1 1.0 0.0 0.0
*createplane 1 1.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0
*morphconstraintupdateplane nodes 1 0 12 1 1 0.0 0 32
