HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command

This command creates a full or partial cone or cylindrical solid.

base_x, base_y, base_z: The x, y and z coordinates specifying the center point of the cone/cylinder base location.
ivec_x, ivec_y, ivec_z: The x, y and z coordinates specifying the first axis vector from the base location.
jvec_x, jvec_y, jvec_z: The x, y and z coordinates specifying the second axis vector from the base location.
kvec_x, kvec_y, kvec_z: The x, y and z coordinates specifying the third axis vector from the base location.

To create a cube solid with its origin at (10,10,10), aligned with global system axis, having size 5:

*solidblock 10 10 10 5 0 0 0 5 0 0 0 5

Incorrect usage results in a Tcl error. To detect errors, you can use the catch command:

if { [ catch {command_name...} ] } {
