The /post26 command ADD and QUOT still have problems due to multiple blank fields on the command. Also if the data is complex then QUOT using the NAME field returns machine zeros for complex variables.

Interesting... it seems to work for me:

>>> mapdl.mat(1)
>>> mapdl.mp("SONC", 1, 1500)  # sonc in m/s
>>> mapdl.mp("DENS", 1, 1000)  # Density in kg/m3
>>> mapdl.mpcopy(1, 2)

COPY MATERIAL        1  DENS  TO MATERIAL        2

 COPY MATERIAL        1  SONC  TO MATERIAL        2

The /post26 command ADD and QUOT still have problems due to multiple blank fields on the command. Also if the data is complex then QUOT using the NAME field returns machine zeros for complex variables.

I will need an example for testing and debugging this.

There is an unused/beta field in MPCOPY. So the command should really be mapdl.mpcopy('', 1, 2)
