I wrote a tcl script for automating topology optimization for a shell. Is it possible to extract nodes and their connectivity for the optimized output instead of saving it as IGES/ STEP?

Thanks in advance

    Are you wanting to have a CSV output with nodes and connectivity? Or are you trying to output the nodes and elements finite element deck (e.g. .fem)?
