EDEMpy automated queries
I created a script to run a series of simulations (64 in total) starting from a template deck, which had 3 queries to save the X, Y and Z particle position. However, the queries were not created for the rest of the simulations. Is there a way using EDEMpy to create the queries and extract the data I want without opening…

Set id assignment in python API
Hello, I am facing an issue in assigning an id to my created node set using python API. This syntax doesn't work: node_set=ent.Set(model,cardimage="SET_GRID", name="node_set_name", id=9999) I noted that when I try recording my commands and generate a python code from tcl, the command *setvalue sets id=1 STATUS=2 id={sets…

hm.Collection is very slow
Hi everyone, I need to batch-process 450 different regions. For each region, I generate from node ids an RBE2. With a Python solution (hm.Collection), this operation is very slow : for a sample of "only" 85 regions, the process takes 160 seconds (around 3 minutes) and usesa lot of RAM. However, using TCL marks in Python…

Is there a way to export a PNG of the geometry/Temperature isovalues map using terminal?
When I run Flux in the GUI, I can export the visual representation of the geometry or the heat map using printGraphicToFile(fileName=img_path, width=1280, height=1024). However, when I execute the same script in batch mode from the terminal, the image is not exported. Is there an alternative method to generate the PNG in…

Altair SLC does not yet allow PROC IML; SUBMIT / PYTHON; ... ENDSUBMIT; QUIT;
Currently SLC is copying SAS Software by emulating PROC IML; SUBMIT / R; ... ENDSUBMIT; QUIT; However, SLC has equivalent functionality for Python, but does not yet allow PROC IML; SUBMIT / PYTHON; ... ENDSUBMIT; QUIT;, probably because SAS Software does not include it. Can this functionality be added to SLC?

Can the elements in a set or ply be highlighted via the Python API?
When updating a set, or even a ply, via the native buttons, elements currently in the set are highlighted so to give the user a clear look at what it's currently in and what's out. Can this behaviour be recreated via the Python API? Updating a collection via interactive selection doesn't achieve this behaviour… Any idea?
