Viewing elements and material types in post processing

Post by ryancwl95 » Mon Dec 04, 2023 3:16 pm

Hi,

I have a model for which I'm using STKO for post processing, I was wondering if there is a way to view the elements and material used in the graphic viewer?

Thank you for your assistance.

Hi. Yes, you can see the element and physical properties in the STKO post-processor as shown in the attached figure.

In my model, I'm unable to view the element properties tab as shown.
I used STKO for my postprocessing of my analysis, the input file is self written.
Could it be, that the input file for this analysis is self written and not STKO pre processor generated?

Is there a line of code which I can add to my script to view the physical/element properties in the post processor?

Sincerely,
Ryan Chia

Yes, it is possible to select the element and material properties in STKO postprocessor by writing Python API script. Following link can be helpful for that purpose.
