Re: [Question #706067]: replace with a clump

 

Question #706067 on Yade changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/706067

Description changed to:
Hello, I am a beginner in Yade. I have two series of seeds, small and
large. For some reason, at the beginning of the code, I add both series
of seeds to the simulation. I want to replace a clamp with only small
seeds. Please tell me from which command. I should use.thank you for
your response.
