SAVE *.lis files(command APDL)

[Tordus]

Hi all. I am getting crazy with this. I started to use ANSYS commands reference, and i like, it seems easy. BUT, i have a problem, i just want one command (the stupid annoying command) that saves *.lis file, for example, i made:

/Post1
....
PRRSOL !To see reaction on supports

OR

PRNSOL,DOF !to see rotations and displacements

Now, i wanna save this file to the directory where the TXT APDL file is. Just that, i wannt to save the .lis or .TXT file. How do i do that? I would be happy if i knew a way to keep the ".lis file" openned after execute all the command APDL.

PS: /output command gives me an extensive *.lis file with all reactions, all the sets, etc, too much info for one file only so it's useless.

You should be able to use the /OUTPUT command to send the results of selected post-processing commands to a separate file. You can do node selects before entering PRRSOL for example. I usually create a component (CM command) of nodes or elements that I will invoke later in post-processing to keep the listings reasonable.
