Hello everybody,

I'm trying to divide a machine in components by the SET command, but I'm having some problems with where I have to write it.
I tried to do it in the Case Control Section and Executive Control Section text boxes, but it didn't work.

I will appreciate any kind of help.

Thank you.

I have used the SET card to control which nodes/elements to print/plot results for by defining the card in the "Case Control Section".

However I have been caught out in the past by forgetting the maximum line length in this section is 72 charachters.
 
If you request results output by Patran group in the advanced results output sub menu of 'Analysis'it converts this to SET n commands in the NASTRAN deck.
