So happy to see someone write C# code for the NX API that looks succinct! Is there anyway you code post (or send me) the code for CreateGraph. I don't really want to create a graph - I'm just missing the logic to get from resultParams to an array of numbers.

Hey @micampbell . Apologies for the delay... You'll find the code for CreateGraph below:

private NXOpen.NXObject CreateGraph(
            NXOpen.CAE.ResultParameters resultParams,
            string title,
            NXOpen.Point3d origin,
            NXOpen.Point3d unitVector,
            NXOpen.CAE.CaeGroup groupe)
    {
        NXOpen.CAE.PostGraphAlongPathBuilder graphBuilder;
        NXOpen.TaggedObject[] taggedNodes;
        int[] nodeIDs;
        NXOpen.NXObject ret;

        this.WriteLine("    Unit: " + resultParams.GetUnit().Abbreviation);
        this.WriteLine("    Graph Title: " + title);

        graphBuilder = this.resultMgr.CreateGraphAlongPathBuilder(
                this.solutionResult,
                resultParams
        );

        // Invariants
        graphBuilder.XaxisOption = PostGraphAlongPathBuilder.Xaxis.LengthAlongDirection;
        graphBuilder.DefineByPathOption = false;
        graphBuilder.IncludeItersectionsOption = false;
        graphBuilder.NoDataOption = PostGraphAlongPathBuilder.DataErrorHandling.Skip;

        graphBuilder.SetVector(unitVector);
        graphBuilder.SetOrigin(origin);
        graphBuilder.GraphTitle = title;
        graphBuilder.SetEntityIds(true, this.GetNodeIDsFromGroup(groupe));

        graphBuilder.Validate();
        ret = graphBuilder.Commit();
        graphBuilder.Destroy();

        return ret;
    }

Although it doesn't look like this is what you wanted.

@micampbell If you want to get an array of numbers from a ResultParameters, you'll have to go through the ResultAccess class, which you can create like so:

        NXOpen.CAE.ResultAccess resAc = this.resultMgr.CreateResultAccess(
                this.solutionResult, resultParams
        );

ResultAccess has a bunch of Ask*Result methods. You'll have to use the correct one based on the result location (which you can query with AskResultLocation.

Hope this helps.

thanks for getting back to me. I'll have a look.
