help setting up groups
« on: September 05, 2013, 12:51:14 AM »
Hi,

I'm trying to use the group.VariableMaterial, to apply materials, the group.VariableBounds to apply bounds, and the group.ComponentMembership to apply components to groups in HyperSizer via MATLAB. My problem is I can't find the necessary inputs

I would really appreciate it if someone could show me how to use these functions.

Cheers
 

Ryan

VariableBound

ComponentMembership

I cannot seem to pass the arrays properly in MATLAB when setting this property. An alternative method is Group.GroupMembership(). Here you pass in the component IDs with a string.

componentRange = '1:3,6,8'   % range = [1,2,3,6,8]
group.GroupMembership(componentRange)


VariableMaterial

This has the same problem with ComponentMembership. The only alternative appears to be using GroupDesigns.
