Mechanical scripting - changing the results display scale

total_obliteration

Hello
My script extracts contour plots of selected result for every load step. I am looking for a way to set a result display (deformations) scale factor via Scripting. There is a ScaleFactor method in the Result object but I think it controls some other aspect of the Result, not a "display scale factor".

print('selected result: ' + selected_result.Name)
selected_result.Activate()
selected_result.ScaleFactor = selected_result.ScaleFactor.UserDefined
selected_result.ScaleFactorValue = 100

See this script:

Graphics.ViewOptions.ResultPreference.DeformationScaleMultiplier = 100

Tree.Refresh()

All the best

Erik
