Using iLogic for Idealization Shell

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi, 

I want to use iLogic to create a Shell Idealization and can't find a way to get it work. 

When running the rules I get an error "Mesh does not contains any nodes or elements" and I think its this row of code that is the problem:

 strCmdForNewIdealization = "<NewIdealization Name=""Test Shell 1"" ID=""1"" Type=""1"" AddToFEModel=""1"" Color=""11087083"" CoordinateSystemID=""0"" MaterialID=""1"" EntitiesCount=""0""/>"

I copied it from an turtorial example but instead of using Shell it used Solid. So I changed it from Type = "2" (solid) to Type = "1" (Shell) accoring to this website: 
https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/nastran-cad/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2019/ENU/N...

 

What could be the problem?
When apply an Idealization "manually" and not using iLogic you have to define the thickness of the Shells and I don't know how to do it in iLogic.

 

Thanks in advance!
