API: How define a bar name

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone,

How define a name for bar via macro in Excel? I tried something and nothing worked.

Image below shows the definition of names in the interface of Robot.

Thanks.

Hi @Anonymous,

I didn't try by myself, but maybe this will help:

Dim RBar As RobotBar
RBar.Name
'or
RBar.NameTemplate

[Anonymous]

It worked with  RBar.NameTemplate = "Test_01"

Thanks

Hi

Is it possible to use Python to define a bar as cable? I am designing a bridge and a few bars are cables and I am not sure if I can use AnalyticalBar.SetSection!
