Block Element

The Block elements contain the steel structure. The Ship element can have multiple Block elements that in turn can have multiple panel elements. Also see the documentation for TXHSTL-R for a further description of common elements and types.

The block name is given by its ObjId attribute. If the block already exists it is updated. The same goes for the panels, groups and components. So to update for example, the dimensions of one of the holes in the panel ES123-730 the input below can be used.

<Ship>

<Block ObjId="ES123">

<PlanePanel ObjId="ES123-730">

<HoleGroup GroupId="5">

<HoleShape HoleType="HO">

<Parameters>800 400</Parameters>
