Notes
Selects a degree of freedom label set for reference by other commands. The label set is used on certain commands where ALL is either input in the degree of freedom label field or implied. The active label set has no effect on the solution degrees of freedom. Specified labels which are not active in the model (from the et or dof command) are ignored. As a convenience, a set of force labels corresponding to the degree of freedom labels is also selected. For example, selecting UX also causes FX to be selected (and vice versa). The force label set is used on certain commands where ALL is input in the force label field.
This command is valid in any processor.
