Read full existing model

[Dervis-vL]

I know of the .Get<object name>() method for the basic objects to get data/information about a specific element. What I want to be able to do is load all the dat of an existing model when I create the Model object.

Is it possible to extract all basic objects, load case and combination and loads data from an existing model?

Hey @Dervis-vL,

Yes, it is possible to extract all the data from an existing model with help of GetAllObjects() method. By this method you can get two lists: one list contains all the objects with their parameters and other list contains the necessary imports for those objects. Below you can find the sample code for it.

from RFEM.initModel import Model
from RFEM.Tools.GetObjectNumbersByType import GetAllObjects

Model(False, 'Demo')
objects, importObjects = GetAllObjects()
for item in objects:
    print(item)

output:

Let us know if it works for you or not.

Great! I fugured it out and I got the information.
