Hello, I'm trying to capture model views as the model is running.
I put this code in a User Event:
viewtofile(node("VIEW:/active/ortho"),modeldir() + "CapturedView1.bmp");
pt("captured");
The word captured appears in the output console but no file is created anywhere. I searched the entire computer for a file named as I did and there is none.
What am I doing wrong?
node("VIEW:/active/ortho") probably is NULL. You need a correct path to the view you want to capture.
Try using activedocumentnode() instead.
Hi this thread helps me in the right direction to capture a view during a simulation run. However I want to capture a specific predefined view and I can't get the correct reference to this view. How to do this?
Model.find("Tools/PerspViews/View 1")
Replace View 1 with the name of your view.
Hi Patrick thanks for your answer, I've tried that but it doesn't seem to work. I've uploaded a test model which represents the logic I would like to use. I use process flow to trigger the capture event. When I put in activedocumentnode() instead of Model.find("Tools/PerspViews/Test") it does work.
