Wondering how to create a parametrized output (that can be fed to Design Explorer) from a python code result object?

 

Similar to how an APDL snippet can have output variables prefixed with "my_", and can then be parametrized. 

 

Thanks!

You can add act code like this say to create parameter of largest defection which is the first result on the solution tree (this is just for reference so you need to adjust as needed):

    myMax = ExtAPI.DataModel.Project.Model.Analyses[0].Solution.Children[1]
    myMax.CreateParameter(‘Maximum’)

 

All the best

Thanks! Would this only work for referencing data already in the solution tree?

 

My goal is to perform calculations on input parameters and expose that result as an output parameter. The output would take no input from the analysis results.
