Mapdl.andyna(delay='', ncycl='', start='', end='', inc='', autocontourkey='', **kwargs)[source]#

Produces an animated sequence of contour values through substeps.

APDL Command: ANDYNA

Parameters:
delay

Time delay during animation (defaults to 0.1 seconds).

ncycl

Number of animation cycles (defaults to 5). Available in non-UI mode only.

start

Number of the starting substep (defaults to 1).

end

Number of the ending substep (defaults to the maximum substep).

inc

Auto-scales contour values, based on the overall subset range of values (defaults to 0, no auto-scaling).

Notes

ANDYNA involves an ANSYS macro which produces an animation of contour values through all the substeps of the last plot action command. This command operates only on graphic display platforms supporting the /SEG command. After executing ANDYNA, you can replay the animated sequence by issuing the ANIM command.

The command functions only in the postprocessor.
