Scripting / Re: Exporting group data from one database to another

« Last post by Ruben on July 16, 2020, 12:56:25 PM »

Hi James,

In my simple example, I've got two FEM projects, both exactly the same model, but with one I set up the groups in the FEM viewer.
I've attached some screen grabs to try and show the issue we're having.

Figure 1 shows the project that contains the required group data. It is contained within the 'upper_skin' group which has components 74 and 75, both identical in terms of variable limits and effective laminates that they can choose. (I've tried it with metallics and get the same result).

Figure 2 shows the two groups correctly exported from Hypersizer, from the project called 'groups' that has the group data.

Figure 3 shows the result of importing the group data into the other project 'no_groups', where I want to recreate the group data.

Figure 4 shows the result in Hypersizer, where concepts and variables have been reset.

Any more info, I can send it on. Database is about 35mb though.

Regards,
Ruben

No, I created a simple model with each assembly having the same concepts, dimensions and materials. If I create the groups through the FEM viewer, it works fine.

When you create groups, do you have conflicting concepts/dimensions for the components in the group? I believe the software resets the group definition if it sees conflicting inputs, because all group inputs need to be the same for the components within the group.

Scripting / Exporting group data from one database to another

« Last post by Ruben on July 16, 2020, 06:59:57 AM »

Hi,

When we are exporting group data from one database, the spreadsheet utility works as required, quickly getting all group data. However, when we try and import this data into another hypersizer database, each component has lost its Concept and variables (min/max/step materials) and they require setting again.
I'm sure I've used this in the past with no problem, is it an issue with using it with v8.0.54, and if so, is there a workaround?

Thanks,
Ruben

Scripting / Re: Is it possible to take screenshoot from Fem viewer with desired failure methods?

Hello,

If I am understanding your question correctly, unfortunately there is not currently a way to take screenshots via the scripting API (from VBA).

Thanks,
Stephen

Hi

I have some display sets. I would like to take screenshots from Fem viewer with some failure methods and thickness values.

Is it possible to take screenshot from fem viewer with desired failure methods by using
 vba?

Stephen,

Thanks for the response.

I changed couple of additional options on the DPI setting window for Hypersizer. It seems to have fixed the problem.

Please see the attached image. The options shown in blue were already selected for windows 10 compatibility. I turned on the options highlighted in yellow. Now HS sizing form shows up completely in the 1920 x 1080 resolution monitor.

Raj

Hello,

Apologies, I missed in your first post that you have that setting active already. That would be our recommendation. Is there some other Windows scaling going on that might be affecting it? I'm not sure I've ever seen this happen on a "normal" resolution with the DPI scaling setting active.

Thanks,
Stephen

Thanks for the reply Stephen. Usually I have DPI scaling turned on. After I turned it off, the project sizing window seems to be missing the min,max, and close option at the top left corner; and the window seems to be truncated as well. Please see the attachment. Appreciate your help!
