FloEFD API

Dears,
Is there any way I can save cut plane or surface plot using FloEFD API. (I only find the way to get point value through API, but I want to save the plot pictures as output file.)

Thanks.

Hi Single,

There is no direct way to specify a cut plane of surface plot as too many variables are necessary to define through the API. You should specify the plots when setting them up in FloEFD and with right click on them and using the "Save as" option you can specify what should the image be in terms of resolution and view angle etc. and if you do this for all the plots you want and specify in the batch results what plots should be created. The batch results can be done from the API as well. So once it is defined you can always run the batch results from the API and get the plots you defined.

I hope this helps,
Boris
