Question: Running pyansys on open instance of APDL #79

Closed Blazen1 closed 5 years ago

Blazen1 commented 5 years ago

It's my understanding that pyansys opens an instance of Ansys in the background and execute the script.

Is there a way to run pyansys to execute on an opened session of Ansys Mechanical?

Thanks.

Sadly, no.

APDL isn't setup to do that, not in the GUI. It might be possible in the future, but at the moment it's not. Such a feature would be ideal, especially with a modern interface.
