  • Python is interface/plate/anchor active?

    Hi all, is there a way in Python to get whether an item is active in the phase? purpose: looping through the phases and read the data out of every interface/plate active in that phase. something like: for fase in g_o.Phases[:]: for Interfa…
  • set automatic values in Legend for OUTPUT using Plaxis Python

    Hi, I want to set automatic values in the legend for OUTPUT using Plaxis Python. I tried this: g_o.Plots[- 1 ].LegendSettings.MinValue.Automatic = True g_o.Plots[- 1 ].LegendSettings.MaxValue.Automatic = True it doesn't give any error, but also…
