main vs reference

GiD_Info postprocess get <option>

The following <option> are available:
It is possible to display two copies of the geometry, the main one (where results are drawn), and a refererence one.

Main geometry

main_geom_state
Returns whether the main geometry is Deformed or Original.

main_geom_factor <analysis_name> <step_value> <result_name>
Returns the deformation factor of the main geometry of "analysis_name" "step_value" "result_name".

main_geom_all_deform
Returns a list of all the deformation variables (vectors) of the main geometry.

main_geom_cur_deform
Returns the current deformation variable (vectors) of the main geometry.

main_geom_cur_step
Returns the main geometry current step.

main_geom_cur_anal
Returns the main geometry current analysis.

main_geom_cur_factor
Returns the main geometry current deformation factor.

Reference geometry (auxiliary geometry to be compared with main geometry, usually deforming one of them)

show_geom_state
Returns whether the reference geometry is Deformed or Original.

show_geom_color
Returns the reference geometry current color.

show_geom_factor <analysis_name> <step_value> <result_name>
Returns the deformation factor of the reference geometry of "analysis_name" "step_value" "result_name".

show_geom_cur_deform
Returns the current deformation variable (vectors) of the reference geometry.

show_geom_cur_analysis
Returns the reference geometry current analysis.

show_geom_cur_step
Returns the reference geometry current step.

show_geom_deformation_type
Returns whether the reference geometry deformation is relative or absolute
