Incorrect naming and pids with d3write

[Vortex-CAE]

When comparing LS-Prepost, Hyperview and the Python arrays, the PIDs are correct in Hyperview but the names are wrong (but only for PIDS >=10), in LS-Prepost the names are correct but the PIDs are incorrect.

What exactly is wrong? That there is one PID more (854)? Otherwise everything looks fine to me.

Hi Codie,

Not all part numbers in LS-Prepost are not correct, Rigid Element should have part # 851, similarly part 851 does not have the correct name in Hyperview.

However updating the encoding on part names to UTF-8 has fixed the part naming in Hyperview (and fixed the crashes with Oasys) but the numbering in LS-Prepost is still incorrect.

Many thanks

Hmmm might be a LS-PrePost thing if HyperView displays it correctly. It might just enumerate it. From what I see the index is 7 in the d3plot which would be 8 if one starts counting from 1 and not 0.

There is something not quite right with the d3plot writer and LS-Prepost. For example I have taken one of your example files here:

origional.zip

I've then removed all solid arrays and written it out and I get this:

d3 = D3plot("C:/Users/PC/Downloads/lasso_test/d3plot")

d3_new = D3plot()

for i in list(d3.arrays):

    if "solid" in i:
        del d3.arrays[i]

d3_new.arrays = d3.arrays 
d3_new.write_d3plot("C:/Users/PC/Downloads/lasso_test/new_d3plot")

I get a corrupted plot that does not open in LS-Prepost.

If I use LS-Prepost to create a reduced d3plot I get this which is correct

reduce.zip

So I am trying to establish what differences there are between the last two d3plot examples - any ideas?
