SCRIPTO is a tool that allows users to customize the LS-PrePost UI and implement their own functions for manipulating models and post-processing results. Anyone interested in using SCRIPTO should download the files listed below.
The official documentation for each published routine currently available to script writers. Users that wish to customize LS-PrePost2.2 should have this manual and update this document regularly.
A powerpoint transfered file demonstrated in the workshop at the 5th LS-DYNA user forum in Ulm Germany. This file is the class notes for the users who attended the conference. Other users may read through it for an overview of customization in LS-PrePost.
A folder that contains a demonstration of a chess game written in the scripting language. The whole game contains 6 script files. Users should load chess.sco into LS-PrePost to start the game.
This game demonstrates how to use the c-parser syntax to develop a script. A class ChessPiece is introduced as a link-list in the scripts to demonstrate how the scripting language can define a user-defined class.
A set of QA scripts that demonstrate how to use every object defined in SCRIPTO.

- Scripts in this folder either using functions that are still under development or are currently undocumented. When they are documented/tested, they will be moved to one of the previous sections (4.1 – 4.3).
A set of scripts that demonstrates how you can load a model and access it from the DataCenter routines. This will show you how to create bitmaps, use highlight mechanisms, create new sets through the general selection mechanism, and set up initial and boundary conditions for a keyword deck. To load the scripts, please read main.sco.
