Hello Gabriele,
I'm afraid not, but you can certainly use AqwaFlow as an alternative, as Shuangxing suggested.
If you want to get wave properties over the same positions as the wave grid in Aqwa Workbench, you can find the grid parameters in the Aqwa input file, located in the Hydrodynamic Diffraction solver files directory (usually e.g. project_files\dp0\AQW\AQW\AQ\Analysis\Analysis.dat). In there you should find an entry like:
SEAG (81, 51, -40., 40., -25., 25.)
which is the number of coordinates in X and Y directions; min X, max X, min Y and max Y. Then you need to create an AqwaFlow input file (.cor) to match this grid, which may be easiest by writing a simple Python script or similar. In this example the .cor file would contain 4,131 points at equally-spaced positions from [-40, -25] to [40, 25] with 1 m spacing. After running AqwaFlow, you could parse the output with another Python script to retrieve the specific information for need.
