Hello,

I am not sure is it the easiest way but you can add plug-in to run your script to Abaqus/CAE menu
and next map any shortcut to run it.

How to add plug-in see:
Abaqus/CAE User's Manual, Part VIII: Using plug-ins

Next add shortcut:
Tools -> Customize -> Functions -> Plug-ins

Bartosz

Hi all

Thanks for the idea akabarten, i am going to try it.

IceBreakerSours can you assign a macro to a keyboard shortcut?

thanks!

Well, I must say that what I am trying to do is to see "Envelope" categorie in section point results.

I tried to insert the following line in my ".py" init file ( a script I run at the start of CAE), but it does not work since there is no odb loaded (I guess).

session.viewports['Viewport: 1'].odbDisplay.basicOptions.setValues(
sectionResults=USE_ENVELOPE)

So what I am trying to do is to assign this code (script) to a keyboard shortcut in order to run it when the ODB is loaded.

thanks all

Hi, here the solution to my last question, i just had to add previously:

from abaqus import *
from abaqusConstants import *
from caeModules import *
from driverUtils import executeOnCaeStartup
