RESETPTS

Reset node values.

• If option is parent (default) the parent child flags are reset. All child points are eliminated and the connectivity list is corrected to reference only the parent points.
• If option is itp the itp1 array is reset to indicate whether each node is in the interior (0), on an interior interface (2), on a reflected boundary (10), or on a reflected interface boundary (12) . Resetting itp would be used if nodes were removed (such as with rmmat) leaving new boundaries
• If option is cell_color then node color (imt) is set based on element color(itetclr).  There are three behaviors possible depending on whether 0, 1 or 3 arguments are specified.
• If no arguments are given, then, loop through all itetclr values in ascending order, and reset node imt to element colors, (itetclr). Note that if parent/child nodes do not exist, then an interface node will have its imt value set to the largest value of itetclr of all elements that contain this node.
• If three arguments are given, then these 3 arguments are interpreted as itetclr_min, itetclr_max, itetclr_stride.  Node colors are reset only for nodes in elements that fall in the subset selected.  See examples given below.
• If one argument is given, this argument is an node imt value and only nodes with node color (imt ) equal to this value will be set to the element color (itetclr).  This option loops through each node of each element and if the node color (imt) is equal to the user specified value (integer_node_color) then it is changed to the element color (itetclr). This will introduce a bias since the nodes are modified in the order of the element numbering. To give some control over the bias the user can specify a negative value for integer_node_color. In that case, the element loop goes from largest to smallest element number.

 

FORMAT:

 

resetpts	remove child points
resetpts/parent	remove child points
resetpts/itp	set node type (itp) from connectivity of mesh
resetpts/cell_color/	set all node colors (imt) from element colors(itetclr)
resetpts/cell_color/istart,iend,istride	set all node colors (imt) from element colors(itetclr)
resetpts/cell_color/ integer_node_color	reset node imt for nodes with imt currently = integer_node_color from the itetclr of an element that contains the node

EXAMPLES:

 

resetpts/parent	remove child points
resetpts/itp	set node type from connectivity of mesh
resetpts/cell_color/1	replace node color for nodes that currently have imt value of 1 by the cell color of an element containing the node; this is done by looping through all the elements in cell color order, so that the value of imt will be the largest itetclr of the set of elements containing this node.
resetpts/cell_color/	loop through all element colors and reset all node imt values
resetpts/cell_color/-1	replace node color for nodes that currently have imt value of 1 by the cell color of an element containing the node; this is done by looping through all the elements in desending cell color order, so that the value of imt will be the smallest itetclr of the set of elements containing this node.
resetpts/cell_color/1,0,0	loop through all element colors and reset all node imt values (same as previous example)
resetpts/cell_color/1,3,1	loop through colors from itetclr=1 to itetclr=3
resetpts/cell_color/3,1,-1	loop through colors from itetclr=3 to itetclr=1
