EnvelopeElement recorder cannot omit to record time

[wuch992006]

Hello,

I use the EnvelopeElement recorder in my script. I attempt to ask the recorder refrain from recording time by not putting the '-time' option. I expect the recorder could not record time, but it still does. The command I put is: recorder('EnvelopeElement', '-file', 'output.txt', '-ele', 1, 'force')

The whole script is: `from openseespy.opensees import *

import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

Thanks, this is due to a bug. Fixed now and should available in the next pip version. https://github.com/OpenSees/OpenSees/commit/5dd66b70909f64428256a1bcb19bef4b1e685d6c
