Exporting probe data

I am in a project that requires many iterations that need the probe temperature data. Right now the probe data is hand typed into Excel (lots of room for error). Would love to have the below displayed probe temperatures exported in some digital form to avoid all the manual work. The report generation can include a picture, like that shown below, but I don't see a way to get the temperature values listed. Any ideas? Thanks.

I am assuming this is data from a Fusion 360 Simulation.  This article tells you where you can find the data to export.  It works just fine if you are displaying your results in the Simulation when you run the command.  The file can be read by Notepad in Windows but I will warn you, it is not an any pretty format.

Dear Fusion360 users, dear @brooknorton1

 

I'm having the same problem and am looking for a solution to export values of multiple probes.

 

I found out that with the Text Command "SimResults.DumpProbeToString", it is possible to get some information about the selected probes. It is even possible to select multiple probes and then executing the Text Command, see the attached Screenshot. I apologize it's in German language.

 

The reported positions seem to be in centimeters, not millimeters.

However, I cannot find the true probe values (in my case the strain in Z-direction)

 

Does anyone have an idea, how to dig deeper with these text commands? 

 

Does anyone know another way to export Probe Values of multiple Probes ?

 

PS: The textcomands are listed here: Fusion360_Small_Tools_for_Developers/TextCommands_txt_Ver2_0_8176.txt at master · kantoku-code/Fusio...

 

Thank you and best regards, Ulrich
