Jan Stránský proposed the following answer: > But when you run it using the script , you do not know the ID of the sphere of course you (can) know it :-) id is returned by O.bodies.append and you can access it as body.id, see below it is a good idea to do things step by step. E.g. it is possible (and OK in many cases where you are not much interested in the specific body) to use O.bodies.append(sphere((0,0,0.30),0.05,material=idSteel)) but then the created body as well as its id "is lost". For this situation, a better approach is the one from my previous answer: hammer = sphere((0,0,0.30),0.05,material=idSteel) # first create a body hammerID = O.bodies.append(hammer) # than append it to simulation and "save" its ID ... hammerID = hammer.id # ID can be also accessed directly from the body then it does not matter if you use hammer.whatever or O.bodies[hammerID].whatever cheers Jan -- You received this question notification because your team yade-users is an answer contact for Yade. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
