Additonal graphics only in Python Result?

RvdH

I would like to plot a path on top of the actual results for the entire model to verify the exact location of the path. The script below works fine but the path remains visible when changing to other results. The intention is to see the path only on the contents of the Python Result object. In ACT one could respond to a closing of a result and remove the graphics but is something similar also possible with a Python Result object?

def post_started(sender, analysis):# Do not edit this line
    define_dpf_workflow(analysis)

def define_dpf_workflow(analysis):
    import mech_dpf
    import Ans.DataProcessing as dpf
    mech_dpf.setExtAPI(ExtAPI)
    dataSource = dpf.DataSources(analysis.ResultFileName)
    #Von Mises stress
    u = dpf.operators.result.stress_von_mises()
    u.inputs.data_sources.Connect(dataSource)

    PathList=DataModel.GetObjectsByType(DataModelObjectCategory.Path)
    for Path in PathList:
        if Path.PathType==PathScopingType.Edge:
            if Path.InternalObject.EdgeGeometryDefineBy==0:
                EdgeId=Path.Location
                Edge=DataModel.GeoData.GeoEntityById(EdgeId.Ids[0])
                Point3D = Graphics.CreateWorldPoint
                with Graphics.Suspend():
                    points=[]
                    for counter in range(0,int(Edge.Points.GetLength(0)/3)):
                        points.Add(Point3D(Edge.Points[counter*3],Edge.Points[counter*3+1],Edge.Points[counter*3+2]))
                    coll = Graphics.Scene.CreateChildCollection()
                    l1 = coll.Factory3D.CreatePolyline(points)
                    l1.Color=0xFF0000
                    l1.LineWeight=5
                    l1.Visible=True
                    l1.Closed = True
                    ExtAPI.Graphics.Scene.Visible = True

    dpf_workflow = dpf.Workflow()
    dpf_workflow.Add(u)
    dpf_workflow.SetOutputContour(u)
    dpf_workflow.Record('wf_id', False)
    this.WorkflowId = dpf_workflow.GetRecordedId()

A quick way to remove the line representing the path would be to open mechanical scripting and issuing the following command in the shell: Graphics.Scene.Clear()
I would prefer an option in the Python result object.

@Pierre Thieffry Any ideas?
