- GiD_EntitiesGroups assign|unassign|get <group> ?-also_lower_entities? ?-also_its_mesh? <over> <selection>
To add, remove or know entities of a group
- GiD_EntitiesGroups assign <group> ?-also_lower_entities? ?-also_its_mesh? <over> <selection>
To assing assign the selection of entities of kind over to the group
<group> is the full name of the group
<-also_lower_entities> is an optional flag, to select also all lower entities of the selected ones (e.g. curves and points of the selected surfaces)
<-also_its_mesh> is an optional flag, to assign also to the mesh created from the geometrical entities, it this information is available
<over> could be points, lines, surfaces, volumes, nodes, elements, faces, all_geometry, all_mesh
<selection> is a list of integer entity id's starting from 1.
In case of faces it is a list with 2 items, the first is the list of element id's and the second the list of face id's (the local number of the face on the element: a number from 1 to nfaces of the element)
In case of all_geometry is expected a list with 4 items with the list of ids of points, lines, surfaces and volumes.
In case of all_mesh is expected a list with 3 items with the list of ids of nodes, elements and faces, and for faces there are two subitems {element_ids face_ids}

...
To get the list of entities of kind <over> that belong to <group>.
If <over> is faces then is obtained a list with 2 sublistssub-lists: element id's and face id's
If <over> is all_geometry then is obtained a list with 4 sublistssub-lists: point id's, line id's, surface id's and volume id's
If <over> is all_mesh then is obtained a list with 3 sublistssub-lists: node id's, element id's, face id's (and face id's is a list with 2 items: element id's and face id's)
if -count is speficifiedspecified, then only the number of objects is returned instead of its list.
if -element_type <types_allowed> is specified then only the types of elements listed in <types_allowed> will be taken into account. <types_allowed> must be a list of triangle quadrilateral, etc.
if -visible is specified, then only the entities visible must be taken into account
...
To get the list of groups to which the entity <id> of type <over> belongs
<over> could be points, lines, surfaces, volumes, nodes, elements, faces
<id> is the entity number, starting from 1. In case of faces it is a list with tho two items: {<element_id> <face_id>}, with <face_id> starting from 1
