Thanks! But just calling attention to the part where I use an external python script to create a txt file of the coordinates given the parameters. Everything within SC and ANSYS is done after, from importing the coordinates from the txt file. Nothing within the ANSYS part of the process really changes except for the txt file it imports (whose name remains the same but contents updates).
So for using parameters in WB, I have the current problem of my parameters not changing within WB but externally. I have considered moving the python script to within my SC script, but then is there an alternative to saving and uploading an external txt file that would work fully within SC instead? Also, I'm still not sure how that would automate between the different applications unless there's some function of WB I'm seriously missing (x_x) Sorry, I haven't been using it long.
While we're on this, it would be really helpful for me to know how to call ANSYS externally, if there are ways people usually do that.
