No rating yet Subject: Re: Controlling name of jpeg output Author: Monte McGlaun Date: 2000-11-30 14:33:00The command works great from the command line, but produces a Warning: "Incorrect us of JPEG. Command ignored." when invoked in a macro.
Any advice on making the macro work. I'm using HP-UX 10.20, Unix, HP C3000 workstation.
Thanks, Monte

Mark,
When I started getting jpeg output from ANSYS, I also started out using the /SHOW command. After some experimentation, and some help from the XANSYS list, I've gone to using the /UI command. A sample chunk from a typical macro follows...
This has worked well for me, and I haven't looked at /SHOW since.
As far as renaming the files (i.e. file000.jpg renamed to elem_1.jpg), I've lost my original desire to do so. Lately I've been leaving them alone, and just creating an HTML page with a table to view them. The one other recommendation I got was to try a DOS script to rename the files, but I haven't tried it.
Hope this helps,,
Jim P.

Controlling name of jpeg output 11/30/00 10:10 AM
Hi
I want to control the name of a jpeg output from ANSYS. Maybe someone can give me a few tips.
The jpeg comes out as Jobnamennn.jpg and I intend to use a /sys command to rename it. But I've found that two jpeg files are produced each time the /show command is issued (eg Jobname000.jpg and Jobname001.jpg). One of the files is very small (ie not a picture) and the other is the picture. Trouble it alternates each time as to which one is the big one and which one is the small one!
If anyone has a trick to rename only the bigger file of the pair, or even better get ANSYS to produce only one file, I'd love to hear it.
