node

  'node' <nr|!> [<x> <y> <z> ['0'|'1']]|
                ['v' <value> [<value> .. ]]|
                ['vs' <value> ]
This keyword is used to define or redefine a node. For example

node 23580 10. 0. 1.

defines a node with the number 23580 at the position x=10, y=0, z=1. With a trailing '0' the update of related entities is skipped:

node 23580 10. 0. 1. 0

This is usefull to speed up the execution when a long list of nodes will be defined. Just the last node needs the update which is executed with a trailing '1'. But that is the default anyway and can be omitted.

If the an automatically generated name is desired, then type ”!” instead of a name.

The values of the selected (current) dataset of a given node can be manipulated by using the option 'v':

node 23580 v 1.1 2.1 3.3

redefine the first three entities to the above values of the selected dataset. The maximum number of entities is determined by the definition of the dataset. See also ”ds” on how to select or generate a new dataset or on how to manipulate entities of the selected dataset.

The value of the selected (current) entity and dataset of a given node can be manipulated by using the option 'vs':

node 23580 vs 1.1
