cmo/delatt


Deletes an attribute from a Mesh Object.

SYNTAX

cmo / delatt / mo_name / att_name

cmo / DELATT / mo_name / att_name

delatt delete attribute from the current Mesh Object. This will not delete an attribute with a persistence of ‘permanent’.

DELATT delete attribute from the current Mesh Object even if it has a persistence of ‘permanent’.

mo_name is the mesh object. The mesh object name must be specified, but keywords can be used, such as -cmo- for current mesh object.

att_name is the name of the attribute to delete from the mesh object. The attribute name must be specified, but keywords can be used, such as -all- for all attributes in the mesh object.

EXAMPLES

cmo/delatt/ mo_tet /boron
cmo/delatt/ -cmo- / boron

If mo_tet is the current mesh object, both commands will delete the attribute named boron from mo_tet.

cmo/delatt/ -cmo- / -all-

This will delete all attributes from the current mesh object with persistence of temporary.

 cmo/DELATT/ mo_tet/ imt1
 cmo/DELATT/ mo_tet/ itp1
 cmo/DELATT/ mo_tet/ icr1
 cmo/DELATT/ mo_tet/ isn1

Even though imt1, itp1, icr1, and isn1 are permanent, they are removed from mesh object named mo_tet. This can be useful when writing mesh files where these attributes are not needed and can reduce the written file size.
