Show window generated in pymapdl on third-party software (Qt Creator, PyQt)

[COOLEST-GET]

May I ask if I want to directly call the visual image window generated in pymapdl and display it on third-party software, such as Qt Creator or PyQt? What method should I use to do this?
Thank you very much for helping me answer this question.

Hi @COOLEST-GET

PyMAPDL plotting functions can return a pyvista plotter object:

pl = mapdl.post_processing.plot_nodal_displacements("X", return_plotter=True)

This plotter (pl) can be used inside your code, add more plots, or whatever. And then show it (pl.show()) in your code when needed.

Regarding specifics on how to couple this object with PyQT or Qt in general, I do not know. But I will refer you to pyvista library which handles all the plotting in PyMAPDL.

I think @mcMunich did an example with Qt. Can you show it?
