NSCALE, INC

, NINC
, RX

, RZ
Generates a scaled set of nodes from a pattern of nodes.
INC
Do this scaling operation one time, incrementing all
nodes in the given pattern by INC
. If INC
= 0, nodes will be redefined at the scaled locations.
NODE1
, NODE2
, NINC
Scale nodes from pattern of nodes beginning with NODE1
to NODE2
(defaults
to NODE1
) in steps of NINC
(defaults to 1). If NODE1
= ALL, NODE2
and NINC
are ignored
and pattern is all selected nodes [NSEL]. If NODE1
= P, graphical picking is enabled and all remaining
command fields are ignored (valid only in the GUI). A component name
may also be substituted for NODE1
(NODE2
and NINC
are ignored).
RX
, RY
, RZ
Scale factor ratios. Scaling is relative to the origin of the active coordinate system (RR, Rθ, RZ for cylindrical, RR, Rθ, RΦ for spherical or toroidal). If absolute value of ratio > 1.0, pattern is enlarged. If < 1.0, pattern is reduced. Ratios default to 1.0 (each).
Generates a scaled pattern of nodes from a given node pattern. Scaling is done in the active coordinate system. Nodes in the pattern may have been generated in any coordinate system.
This command is also valid in the /MAP processor.
