ansys.mapdl.core.Mapdl.anum#

Mapdl.anum(num='', type_='', xhot='', yhot='', **kwargs)#

Specifies the annotation number, type, and hot spot (GUI).

Mechanical APDL Command: /ANUM

Command default:

Number, type, and hot spot are automatically determined.

Parameters:
numstr

Annotation number. Mechanical APDL automatically assigns the lowest available number. You cannot assign a higher number if a lower number is available; the program substitutes the lowest available number in place of any user-specified higher number.

type_int or str

Annotation internal type number. If TYPE = DELE, delete annotation NUM.

Notes

This is a command generated by the GUI and will appear in the log file ( Jobname.LOG ) if annotation is used. This command is not intended to be typed in directly in a Mechanical APDL session (although it can be included in an input file for batch input or for use with the input command).

Type 13 (bitmap) annotation applies user defined bitmaps defined using the FILE option of the txtre command.

This command is valid in any processor.
