check#
- Mapdl.check(sele='', levl='', **kwargs)#
Checks current database items for completeness.
APDL Command: CHECK
- Parameters:
- sele
Specifies which elements are to be checked:
- (blank)
Check all data.
- ESEL
Check only elements in the selected set and unselect any elements not producing geometry check messages. The remaining elements (those producing check messages) can then be displayed and corrected. A null set results if no elements produce a message. Issue ESEL,ALL to select all elements before proceeding.
- levl
Used only with Sele = ESEL:
- WARN
Select elements producing warning and error messages.
- ERR
Select only elements producing error messages (default).
Notes
This command will not work if SHPP,OFF has been set. A similar, automatic check of all data is done before the solution begins.
If the “Check Elements” option is invoked through the GUI (menu path Main Menu> Preprocessor> Meshing> Check Elems), the CHECK,ESEL logic is used to highlight elements in the following way: good elements are blue, elements having warnings are yellow, and bad (error) elements are red.
Note:: : The currently selected set of elements is not changed by this GUI function.
This command is also valid in PREP7.
