<p>Hello everyone,<br>I work with Mechanical and workbench Scripting a lot .<br>Specifically, I run calculations in Mechanical using gitlab runner to planify the execution of my tests.<\/p><p>My scripts all follow the same structure , that i will simplify here.<br>A first Bash Script calls a Main Journal using the following flags :<br>#################<br>”%AWP_ROOT242%\\Framework\\bin\\Win64\\RunWB2.exe” -B -R “%CI_PROJECT_DIR%\\MainJournal.wbjn”<br>#################<\/p><p>MainJournal.wbjn :<br>#################<br># Setup Environment variables<br>…<br># setup files<br>…<br># Run script<br>RunScript(FilePath=Another_journal.wbjn)<br>#################<\/p><p> <\/p><p><br>Another_journal.wbjn does operations that are specific to every calculation i run.<\/p><p>Another_journal.wbjn : <br>#################<br># More setup<br>…<br># load model<br>Unarchive(ArchivePath=”Model.wbpz”, ProjectPath=”Model_name.wbpj”)<br>system1 = GetSystem(Name=”SYS”)<br>container1 = system1.GetContainer(ComponentName=”Setup”)<br>container1.Edit()<br>Simulation.RunScript(FilePath=”Macro_file.py”, IsMeshing=False, ModelName=”Model”)<br>#################<\/p><p>In 23 R2, this worked flawlessly. <\/p><p>However, when we updated from Ansys 23R2 to Ansys 24R2, all my scripts stopped working. <br>I have narrowed the failure to the container1.Edit() line. my scripts would just stop there, and do nothing.<br>Through trial and error, i realized that i could simply remove that .edit() line and most of my scripts would still work.<br>Not all though. For example , i cannot use legend.Reset() specifically, as well as some other things like OnClick callbacks linked to Mechanical Interface buttons do not work .<br>I understand that this is a very limited use case, but could anyone point me to what changed between versions 23 and 24 with the container.edit() function ?<br>Additionnally, what could i do to re-add the .Edit() line ?<br>Any help would be greatly appreciated<\/p><p><br>PS:  If someone could tell me how to format a block of text as code i would appreciate it too !<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-390037","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-python-ironpython-1","topic-tag-macros-scripting-2"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
