Hi,

I would like to perform a parametric study via do-loops and in each cycle I want to write desired solution results to arrays. furthermore I would like to capture some images of results in each cycle, but how to name these pictures ? - I dont want format file001.jpg, file002.jpg...

I know only one way to do this - change the jobname...,but is there any easier way to name these pictures ?

thanx

Hi,

The command

/IMAGE, Label, Fname, Ext

captures and saves an bitmap image. But bitmaps are big and the number of captured images is limited. I don't remember to how much....

The Jpeg command saves the file as you said to file00i.jpg. I can copy this file (/copy) and delete the old file (/delete). This more complicated way, but not too complicated, should work...

Hope it helps!

Regards,
Alex
