How to include deformation scaling into a plot created by Python Result? By default it is unscaled

Rohith Patchigolla

By Adjusting Deformation scaling in Mechanical, one could scale the Deformed shape for any standard result. But, this doesn't seem to work for Python Result (scaling is greyed out).

One would just need to add the below line to the default code when one inserts Python result to deform the plot based on Deformation scaling.

dpf_workflow.SetOutputWarpField(u)

def post_started(sender, analysis):# Do not edit this line
    define_dpf_workflow(analysis)
 
# Uncomment this function to enable retrieving results from the table/chart
# def table_retrieve_result(value):# Do not edit this line
    # import mech_dpf
    # import Ans.DataProcessing as dpf
    # wf = dpf.Workflow(this.WorkflowId)
    # wf.Connect('contour_selector', value)
    # this.Evaluate()
 
def define_dpf_workflow(analysis):
    import mech_dpf
    import Ans.DataProcessing as dpf
    mech_dpf.setExtAPI(ExtAPI)
    dataSource = dpf.DataSources(analysis.ResultFileName)
    u = dpf.operators.result.displacement()
    nrm = dpf.operators.math.norm_fc()
    # timeScop = dpf.Scoping()
    # timeScop.Ids = [1]
    # u.inputs.time_scoping.Connect(timeScop)
    u.inputs.data_sources.Connect(dataSource)
    nrm.Connect(u)
    dpf_workflow = dpf.Workflow()
    dpf_workflow.Add(u)
    dpf_workflow.Add(nrm)
    dpf_workflow.SetOutputWarpField(u)
    # dpf_workflow.SetInputName(u, 0, 'time')
    # dpf_workflow.Connect('time', timeScop)
    dpf_workflow.SetOutputContour(nrm)
    dpf_workflow.Record('wf_id', False)
    this.WorkflowId = dpf_workflow.GetRecordedId()
