step_simtime

anim_flipbook.step_simtime(p0: float) → int

Specify the simulation-time increment by which to run the transient_data flipbook animation.

Not applicable if not transient data. Only pages contained in the valid simulation-time range will be generated.

Args:

p0:

‘time_value’ increment value in simulation-time units that preferably lies within the range set by the

Examples:

#
# Specify time and flipbook sequencing as simulation time
#
ensight.solution_time.show_as("time")
ensight.anim_flipbook.specify_time_as("simulation")
#
# Specify time increment
#
ensight.anim_flipbook.step_simtime(2.0000e+00)
#
# Load and run transient data flipbook
#
ensight.anim_flipbook.begin_simtime(3.5400e+02)
ensight.anim_flipbook.end_simtime(3.6400e+02)
#
# Load and run flipbook pages with t=354.0,356.0,358.0,360.0,362.0,364.0
#
ensight.anim_flipbook.load()
ensight.anim_flipbook.run_type("auto")

Returns:

zero on success, non-zero on error
