Generate Discrete Laminates from Effectve Lamiantes via COM API

[Tobias Bach]

Hi there,

when I use HyperSizer via the GUI, I can create Effective Lamiantes, analyze the component and generate Discrete Laminates from the result.
Is this feature available for the object model per function? Or do I have to get the Material Name of the chosen Effective Laminate and the thickness of the variable, evaluate the share of the different fiber directions and then generate the Discrete Laminates via the Laminates.Create function?

Generating and assigning sets of effective and discrete laminates is available through the GUI only. You can manually create and assign individual discrete laminates using Laminates.Create() and Group.VariableMaterial(), but this is not the recommended approach.
