Problem with Astk

Hey,
i have a model with a lot of single mesh files. i try to give every *.med file it's own LU number in Astk. (over 200)

as i wanted to start the job, there was an error message telling me incorrect unit number.

can anyone help me with my problem?
is it possible to set the lu number over 99 or is there any option to raise the limit?
if there are other solutions how i can handle my problem it would be nice to tell me

thanks in advance!

Hello Thomas,

as claws proposed the best solution would probably be to create a compound mesh in salome. If the you have to deal with large mesh sizes this could also easily be bone in batch mode or completly via python.

If you really want to do this with aster you could "hack" the python catalogue:
- search for the file cata.py ( for me its /opt/aster/11.4/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Cata/cata.py)
- search for INFO_EXEC_ASTER and replace val_max=99 by val_max=999 for example.
But this could have side effects, so I would not really advise you to do it unless you have no other choice.

Best regards,
Richard

thank for the answers!

i will try it with a compound mesh in salome.

kind regards

thomas

Edit:
it works but i have one additional question:
there are yellow warning symbols at the groups of nodes.
is this any problem?
