Running Example Code from File on E: drive Throws Error

Open aeromorrison opened this issue 4 months ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug When running one of the Pynite example codes (Space Frame - Nodal Loads 1.py) with the file located on the E: drive, the following error is raised.

"ValueError: path is on mount 'C:', start on mount 'E:'"

If the python file is moved to the C: drive, then it runs fine.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Copy example code "Space Frame - Nodal Loads 1.py".
  2. Save file to drive other than C: drive (e.g. E: drive).
  3. Run code.
  4. See "ValueError: path is on mount 'C:', start on mount 'E:'"

Expected behavior The codes can be run from any mounted drive to align with project file management and IT requirements.

Screenshots N/A

Additional context The problem seems related to the Rendering commands. Note that I'm proficient with Python, but I'm a new Pynite user.
