file graphics write
Allows you to write a graphics (.gra) file, so you can use the graphics data in Adams PostProcessor or other postprocessor.
Format:
file graphics write |
|---|
analysis_name = | an existing analysis |
file_name = | string |
Example:
file graphics write & |
|---|
analysis_name = | last_run & |
file_name = | "c:\model_1.gra" |
Description:
Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|
analysis_name(required) | An Existing Analysis | Specifies the name of the analysis from which data should be extracted to write the graphics file. |
file_name(required) | String | Specifies the name of the file that is to be written. |
Extended Definition:
1. The analysis_name parameter specifies the name of the analysis to store the Adams output in. When Adams View reads a graphics file (.GRA), a request file (.REQ), a results file (.RES), or all three with the FILE ANALYSIS READ, it stores them in an analysis. By default, the name of the analysis is the file name excluding the extension.
Adams View requires that Adams simulations have unique names, therefore if an analysis already exists with the same name as your files, use this parameter to assign a unique name at the time of reading the file(s).
2. The file has a .gra extension by default, but you can override it by supplying a different extension.It's not necessary to enclose the file name in quotes if it only contains alphanumeric characters and starts with a letter. If you want to include other characters, such as a '.' for an extension or '/' or '[]' for directory paths, you must enclose the file name in quotes.
