variable_1

query_ent_var.variable_1(args: Any) → int

Specify the variables to be queried. The first variable can be any active variable. The second variable can be distance, time, or a second active variable.

This command must lie between either a “query_ent_var: begin” and “query_ent_var: end” pair, or a “query_ent_var: modify_begin” and “query_ent_var: modify_end” pair.

Args:

p0:

‘name’ name of the active variable. For variable_1 it can be any active variable. For variable_2, it can be DISTANCE if a non-scatter query over distance is being created, TIME if a non-scatter query over time is being created, or any active variable if a scatter query is being created. If plotted, variable_1 will be the Y-axis variable and varibe_2 will be the X-axis variable.

Examples:

ensight.part.select_all()
#
# At line tool over distance query
#
ensight.query_ent_var.begin()
ensight.query_ent_var.description("")
ensight.query_ent_var.query_type("generated")
ensight.query_ent_var.number_of_sample_pts(20)
ensight.query_ent_var.constrain("line_tool")
ensight.query_ent_var.constrain("line_tool")
ensight.query_ent_var.line_loc(1,-7.5000e-01,1.1561e+00,1.0000e+00)
ensight.query_ent_var.line_loc(2,1.7500e+00,1.1561e+00,1.0000e+00)
ensight.query_ent_var.variable_1("temperature")
ensight.query_ent_var.generate_over("distance")
ensight.query_ent_var.variable_2("DISTANCE")
ensight.query_ent_var.end()
ensight.query_ent_var.query()

Returns:

zero on success, non-zero on error
