I am building up composite layups and assigning them to element sets. When I do so as soon as I try to submit the job, Abaqus always gives me the error "The following parts have some elements without any section assigned". There is not a single element without a material property, I do this by a script. As soon as I use a set which does not contain elements but a geometry Abaqus highlights the region green, but using geometry instead of element sets is not very suitable for me, because I am changing the properties of different elements. Also the region selection window opened by abaqus says "Sets below may contain elements, cells, shell faces or wire edges", so it should be possible to use element sets right?
I use the section assignment only for a small amount of elements, everything else is covered by composite layups.
If needed I can share more details from my model, but as I am not sure where to look for any errors right now, I wont do that right now.
Best regards and thanks for any advice!
You can do data check and then in open generated odb in viewer. In opened odb you can find ErrElemMissingSection in 'Display groups'

I am trying to make a number of front panel decorations hidden in LabVIEW by the use of a boolean control. I have figured out how to do this with one object fine and have made it work with multiple items however it is not very elegant to say the least (see attached image). While in this case I only have 5 elements what if I had an elaborate front panel and had many more decorations I wanted to hide? There must be a better way to do this.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
It works, just not very efficient....
As you might now you can use a for loop to iterate over array elements. What I would suggest is in the initialization code of your application put the controls of interest on to arrays, and when a user clicks a particular button iterate over those arrays to execute the visible non visible property node call on your decos and or controls of interest.
Im just getting into using LabView and I ran into an error I can't seem to get rid of while working on a small sample exercise with the Bundle by Name Function.
Under here you can find my front panel, block diagram & error message displayed.
The output cluster is all indicators and all the items in the Enums have the same values, I don't know what I am doing wrong here. Can anyone help out?..
Thanks in advance!
Just delete your output cluster, than right click on bundle function and create indicator.
The problem is your output cluster order is other than cluster constant order.
Please read about type definitions and consider using them to avoid problems like this in the future.
Double check that your indicator and the cluster constant are actually the same type. A short cut would be to delete the existing control and just creat a new on by right clicking on the terminal of the unbundle by name and selecting create>>indicator.
Given the error message, I would say that it's because of the difference in elements order, between the constant you're giving to the Bundle, and the indicator wired to the output.
You can make sure of order consistency by right-clicking on the border of the cluster constant, and select AutoSizing -> Arrange vertically. This will order the elements, and to fix it you re-order by selecting Reorder controls in cluster in the same menu. Of course, you can also fix the ordering of the indicator.
We have a script that export our Indesign documents to HTML and one of the routine is to export tables. In this script we go throught each Tables->Rows->Cells and evaluate some of the properties (i.e. bottomEdgeStrokeType, topEdgeStrokeType, etc...) and transport them to HTML.
Now yesterday we had problem converting one particular document because some cells were missing the "bottomEdgeStrokeType" property entirely. I've discovered this by outputting the properties of each cells and compare the faulty ones with the others.
This line bellow was trowing the error: "Invalid object for this request.".
var cellType = cell["bottomEdgeStrokeType"];
Now, to fix this I've wrapped this around a try catch block to handle the case when it's not there, but now what is puzzling me is how on earth can Extendscript instantiate an object with missing properties?
Indesign version: CS5.5
A property is not only 'undefined' if it cannot exist at all (such as asking for the parent text frame for a character in overset text), but InDesign's Javascript engine also fails to return a reasonably accurate result for multiple values.
If you ask for "the" point size of a paragraph, where this paragraph contains multiple sizes, poor ID does not consider to return something like CONSTANT.Mixed, or the first value only, or (what I might have preferred) an array of the values; it returns undefined instead.
So how can a single table cell have multiple bottom strokes? If the cell underneath it is split into multiple cells, and one has a "top" stroke but the other has not.
It's difficult to recommend an adequate solution. You could first test if the current cell is "merged" (as far as InDesign's internal table model is concerned) with columnSpan; and if so, iterate over the number of columns spanned and test the next row's cells for their top stroke, which in theory should match the bottom stroke of the cell above. (I find myself wondering if this is always true. ID's table model is ... weird. It's not entirely like a HTML table, despite the functional overlaps.)
If columnSpan is greater than 1 and equal to the number of cells immediately below the current one, you could test if all of their "top" values are the same and if so use that value. (I never tested this so ID's table model may simply fail because a cell is merged, regardless of same-values or not.)
One could attempt to flag this cell's next row to output "top" strokes as well -- but alternating top and bottom strokes may not align nicely in CSS, side to side. Perhaps it's best to translate only the first top stroke value to "the" bottom stroke property for your current cell, and fix up manually where needed (how?) or, a reasonable action, hope that no-one will ever notice it.
I am looking for a control many of us probably know, but I don't know it's name and don't have a real screenshot by hand, just this sketch:
In the left box one can select an operation or whatever, which then is moved to the right side. With the up/down arrows on the right, one can move this operation (or whatever kind of meaning the entry has) up or down in the order of execution.
How is this kind of control called? Or is it normally build by developers out of single controls? Is this control available in JavaFX 2? If not, I don't need exactly this control, but a control with the following features:
User can select multiple operations (duplicates allowed) out of all available operations
The user can arrange their order of execution
Thanks for any hint :-)
You need to use multiple controls to build up your interface. Use two ListViews with a MultipleSelectionModel for each (or at least the left one) and add a couple of buttons, that copy selected items from one list to the other and another couple of buttons which modify the position of selected items in the right list view by modifying the view's underlying item list.
listView.getSelectionModel().setSelectionMode(SelectionMode.MULTIPLE);
How is it possible to get, directly from the Matlab command window, the position (i.e. the coordinates) of an object (e.g. an arrow, a rectangle or sim.) that I have drawn on a plot?
You can usually do this using the handle graphics properties. For example:
Make a plot
h = plot(1:10, rand(10,1));
Then get the actual values of the points
x = get(h,'xdata')
y = get(h,'ydata')
Different types of objects have different properties, sometimes you have to explore. In that case this syntax is useful.
get(h) %This displays all available properties on `h` to the command window
A final useful tidbit is the gco ("get current object") function, which provides the handle of the last item that you plotted or manually clicked on. This can help if you're not sure where the plotted item came from.
Edit:
To find all of the properties which are descendents of an object, use either findobj, or findall. For example:
findobj(gcf); %Returns all non-hidden, typical objects. This should be your first attempt.
findall(gcf); %Returns all children, even hidden object, such as titles, manually added annotations, and UI menus
This call removes some common UI annotations
get(findall(gcf,'-not','type','uimenu','-not','type','uitoggletool','-not','type','uipushtool','-not','type','uitogglesplittool'),'type')
(Presumably the last example could be improved with a properly designed regexp, but I can't seem to get that working right now.)
