[General] Get maximum and minimum values of a field variable and make probes with them

jingless · June 23, 2016, 05:26

Hello,

I'm trying to do a very basic thing which any commercial FEM software does very straightforward. I want in a contour plot, to point to the nodes where the maximum and minimum values take place and to show the corresponding field values in a label like it was a probe.
I'm reading the data from a med file (code_aster).

Can someone help me to accomplish that in python scripting or using the GUI at least?

Hi,

One way to do this is to open the spreadsheet view and select the min and max rows (use sorting to find the right rows). Then, use View->Selection View Inspector to label the selected rows.

Regards,
Mikko

Hi Jorge,

Sorry I do not know a way to do this in pure Python. I would also like to know.
