We’re putting the final touches on our new badges platform. Badge issuance remains temporarily paused, but all completions are being recorded and will be fulfilled once the platform is live. Thank you for your patience.

Seems like your python method should work.  It can be done in POST1 with APDL also:

/post1

set,last          ! store some result

node_1=100  ! hypothetical node numbers

node_2=200

delta_x=ux(node_1)-ux(node_2)

delta_y=uy(node_1)-uy(node_2)

delta_z=uz(node_1)-uz(node_2)
