I am trying to export snapshots of Von-Mises stress results with some Python code:<\/p>\n
Model=ExtAPI.DataModel.Project.Model
result=Model.Analyses[0].Solution.Children[1]
ExtAPI.DataModel.Tree.Activate(result)
Graphics.Camera.SetSpecificViewOrientation(ViewOrientationType.Front)
Graphics.Camera.SetFit()
directory = “C:\\\\Users\\\\ianve\\\\Desktop\\\\WORK\\\\CURRENT\\\\Tridem\\\\Results”
file_stress_side = directory + “\\\\stress_side.jpg”
file_stress_top = directory + “\\\\stress_top.jpg”
file_stress_bottom = directory + “\\\\stress_bottom.jpg”
file_stress_iso = directory + “\\\\stress_iso.jpg”
setting2d = Ansys.Mechanical.Graphics.GraphicsImageExportSettings()
setting2d.Width = 1920
setting2d.Height = 1080
setting2d.Background = GraphicsBackgroundType.White
setting2d.CurrentGraphicsDisplay = False
Graphics.ExportImage(file_stress_side, GraphicsImageExportFormat.JPG, setting2d)
Graphics.Camera.SetSpecificViewOrientation(ViewOrientationType.Top)
Graphics.Camera.SetFit()
Graphics.ExportImage(file_stress_top, GraphicsImageExportFormat.JPG, setting2d)
Graphics.Camera.SetSpecificViewOrientation(ViewOrientationType.Bottom)
Graphics.Camera.SetFit()
Graphics.ExportImage(file_stress_bottom, GraphicsImageExportFormat.JPG, setting2d)
Graphics.Camera.SetSpecificViewOrientation(ViewOrientationType.Iso)
Graphics.Camera.SetFit()
Graphics.ExportImage(file_stress_iso, GraphicsImageExportFormat.JPG, setting2d)<\/p>\n
The problem I encounter is every time I solve the system from Workbench, the snapshots are not saved. When I export the stress results as a text file with:<\/p>\n
top_result = DataModel.GetObjectsByName(“Top”)[0]
top_result.ExportToTextFile(“C:\\\\Users\\\\ianve\\\\Desktop\\\\WORK\\\\CURRENT\\\\Tridem\\\\Results\\\\top.txt”)
bot_result = DataModel.GetObjectsByName(“Bottom”)[0]
bot_result.ExportToTextFile(“C:\\\\Users\\\\ianve\\\\Desktop\\\\WORK\\\\CURRENT\\\\Tridem\\\\Results\\\\bot.txt”)
side_result = DataModel.GetObjectsByName(“Side”)[0]
side_result.ExportToTextFile(“C:\\\\Users\\\\ianve\\\\Desktop\\\\WORK\\\\CURRENT\\\\Tridem\\\\Results\\\\side.txt”)<\/p>\n
the code executes every time. When I solve from Mechanical itself, the snapshots are created and saved. How can I fix this or work around it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-233531","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-ansysworkbench-ansys-staticstructural","topic-tag-mechanicalworkbench-1","topic-tag-python-scripting"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["261897","58821","240"],"_bbp_author_ip":["66.198.8.115"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["1686"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["233531"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["240","58821","261897"],"_bbp_voice_count":["3"],"_bbp_reply_count":["3"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["234470"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["234470"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2022-09-05 18:20:02"]},"test":"ianvafrit-co-za"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/233531","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/233531\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=233531"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
