I am facing issue while adding a subsystem in my model using mscript when there is already a subsystem with different name

Hi

I am facing the below error while adding a subsystem in my model using mscript when there is already a subsystem with different name

My Code to add a subsystem to model:

bh = Simulink.findBlocks('Script_Test');

Simulink.BlockDiagram.createSubsystem(bh,'Name','ss2');

Error Window details:

Error using createSubsystemImpl

Blocks and annotations must belong to the same parent to create a new subsystem

Error in slprivate

Error in Simulink.BlockDiagram.createSubsystem

Error in SW_Script (line 164)

Simulink.BlockDiagram.createSubsystem(bh,'Name','ss2'); - Show complete stack trace

• In SW_Script (line 164)while adding a subsystem in my model using mscript when there is already a subsystem with different name

The way you run bh = Simulink.findBlocks('Script_Test'), the returned blocks are not in the same level, thus the error.

Most likely, you mean to do this:

f = Simulink.FindOptions('SearchDepth',1)
bh = Simulink.findBlocks('Script_Test',f);
Simulink.BlockDiagram.createSubsystem(bh,'Name','ss2');

Hello Fangjun Jiang,

I used the above script but the old subsystem created is transferred inside the new subsystem(ss2), Can you help me out with old subsystem getting not pasted into new subsystem(ss2).

Thanks!!

Read the help doc of Simulink.findBlocks and Simulink.BlockDiagram.createSubsystem, you should be able to figure it out.

Likely, if you change one line to bh = Simulink.findBlocks('Script_Test\ExistingSysName',f), it will copy all the blocks inside "ExistingSysName" block.
