Finds the volume of a solid entity specified by the solid entity’s ID.
Syntax
hm_getvolumeofsolid solids solidID
Type
HyperMesh Tcl Query Command
Description
This command finds the volume of the solid solid_id. The solid argument is actually the entity type, but because this command is specifically for solid volumes, "solids" is the only valid entity type.
Example
To find the volume of solid 3:
hm_getvolumeofsolid solids 3
Errors
Incorrect usage of hm_getvolumeofsolid results in a Tcl error. The function returns an error if the current model does not contain a solid with the given solid_id.
If { [ catch {hm_getvolumeofsolid solids $solid_id } ] } {
# Handle error here - $solid_id is not a valid solid ID.
}
