Setting the Dimensions of a rack

Hi,
I want to set the rack bay and level size and number from a table on reset. The size for all widths and heights are the same. Is there any easy way to do this. Did I miss a command? Can I use the routines of the size table GUI in the rack?

Hi Nico,

There is no command (what I can see) to do what you want.

Remember that you always can use the Explore Structure to see how Flexsim have implemented a function.

Go to Size Table tab and the right click with the mouse, choose Explore Structure under View. Look in tree to see how the sizing is implemented.

Thank you Lars for the hint.
It was pretty easy.
Here is the code which should work on the onreset-trigger:

int i_max_con =100; // max content
double d_height=1;
double d_width=1.5;
int i_bay=15; // number of Bays
int i_level=5 // number of levels

//set max content
setvarnum(current,"maxcontent",i_max_con);

// set size of rack
treenode t_st=node("/variables/sizetable",current);

nodefunction(
node("/project/library/Rack>behaviour/eventfunctions/BasicRefreshTable",main),
current,
i_level,
i_bay,
d_height,
d_width
);
repaintview(current);
repaintall();

what good then would it be to have this line:
// set size of rack
treenode t_st=node("/variables/sizetable",current);

I am not sure if I understand your question.
But you are right, the pointer t_st is not used in the code and therefore not needed.
Maybe there was some additional code behind the code Nico posted where the pointer was used. I can imagine that he did a print in the output console to check the size of the rack. But this is only a guess.

Yes Tom, you are right, so the pointer is not necessary for setting the rack dimensions. (I missed to delete it from a former try with a different concept )
