display_tension#

tensor.display_tension(p0: str) int#

Specifies whether the tension portion of a tensor glyph will be displayed.

Args:
p0:

‘toggle’

  • ON

  • OFF

Examples:
#
# Activating a tensor variable
#
ensight.variables.activate("uniaxial_tensor")
#
# Selecting all parts as parents
#
ensight.part.select_all()
#
# Grouping a bunch of tensor attribute commands
# (One of which is to have the tension displayed)
# 
ensight.tensor.begin()
ensight.tensor.variable("uniaxial_tensor")
ensight.tensor.display_compression("ON")
ensight.tensor.display_tension("ON")
ensight.tensor.display_major("ON")
ensight.tensor.display_minor("ON")
ensight.tensor.display_middle("ON")
ensight.tensor.tip_shape("triangle")
ensight.tensor.tip_size(1.0000e-01)
ensight.tensor.color_by("direction")
ensight.tensor.compression_rgb(1.0000e+00,0.0000e+00,4.0000e-01)
ensight.tensor.tension_rgb(0.0000e+00,8.0000e-01,1.0000e+00)
ensight.tensor.line_width_by("direction")
ensight.tensor.compression_line_width(2)
ensight.tensor.tension_line_width(4)
ensight.tensor.end()
#
# Creating the tensor glyph part
#
ensight.tensor.create()
#
# Selecting the newly created tensor glyph part
#
ensight.part.select_begin(5)
#
# And turning tension portion off - to
# show how it can be done
#
ensight.part.modify_begin()
ensight.tensor.display_tension("OFF")
ensight.part.modify_end()
Returns:

zero on success, non-zero on error
