Output Command Line

Thanks, Stefanos! That works well for deformed mesh.

For connectivity, I ended up using pyautogui to punch in "ctrl+0", and then exported the plot. It works, but it's not ideal.

Dear Sean,

Neither is yet added. I have updated the priority.

The only workaround available is:

for the connectivity plot: try loading the Output plot before calculation (preview Phase_x)
for the deformed mesh: make sure to make any plot captures before you switch to any other ResultType.

Stefanos, has a command for connectivity plot been developed?

I'm also looking for a python command for deformed mesh, but it doesn't seem to work either. Seems like I need to set the PlotType to None, which it doesn't allow me to do.

Dear Anaelle,

The connectivity plot seems to be missing so I have asked our developers to implement the command for that.

For forces in plates, you can use the structureplot command to enter the structure view and then change the plot to a different PlotType related to the plate.

For example, assuming you have a plate called Plate_1, you can do the following:

structureplot Plate_1

set Plots[-1].ResultType ResultTypes.Plate.Nx2D

The last will show the Axial forces N for the selected plate.

For more information on the commands and objects, you can check the Commands reference and the Objects reference under Help menu.
