PDMS group screening method

I’ll take care of it myself; I hope some expert will appear to help solve it
I’m not sure if my post made itself clear enough; I’d like to add some further details. In our institute, it’s common to classify pipes based on their type, and this leads to a problem: when generating drawings, pipes of the same type end up scattered across different model trees, which makes management difficult. PDMS has a concept called \"group\" that allows for the centralized management of such dispersed elements. However, with standard PDMS operations, it’s necessary to add each pipe individually, which is quite tedious. I was wondering if there’s a filtering function similar to a list that could enable batch selection, or if it’s possible to use PML for this purpose. I hope zzghf_cd can provide an answer. Thank you

I mean, in the model tree’s group world, it’s possible to add groups manually, but filtering using methods like lists isn’t available. I’d like to know how to write a PML program that allows for batch selection and input of elements within the group world
Assuming that all your pipes are located in /PIPES, your filtering condition is that the name contains 100-B, and your group level is GROUP 1 of GPWLD 1 of WORLD /*, then the program should be written as follows: var !brans coll all bran with matchwild(name,'*100-B*') for /PIPES GROUP 1 of GPWLD 1 of WORLD /* do !bran values !brans gadd $!bran enddo
Thank you. I just didn’t know there was a command called gadd; I couldn’t find any information on it. Brother zzghf_cd has a very strong foundation in PML
Hehe, it’s just average; I’ve done many programs before, that’s why I know a little about it
Do all commands executed within a group just need to have a ‘G’ added in front of them?
Use grem for removal; other methods are not used very often. It depends on your needs. If you encounter any problems, we can discuss them then – everything should be solvable
Hello, zzghf_cd. May I ask if the code var !brans coll all bran with matchwild(name,'*100-B*') for /PIPES can be written in this way? var !brans coll all $!a withmatchwild(!type,!text) for $!b !a = 'bran' !type = 'Pspec' !text ='*1A1' !b = '/*'
