I&#8217;m trying to write a code (python or APDL) in Mechanical to automatically export (save in .txt or .csv) the results of a transient analysis. In particular I want to save the nodal deformation forn each time-step in the y direction of a specific node (result present in the result tree). I tried following the directions described in https:\/\/discuss.ansys.com\/discussion\/2161\/insert-results-and-export-image-and-animation?utm_source=community-search&amp;utm_medium=organic-search&amp;utm_term=Export+and+ image or at https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/forums\/topic\/how-to-automatically-export-csv-or-xls-after-solving-each-design-point\/ but I get the deformation in x,y and z direction in just one time step.
