GraphicsInfo object

The GraphicsInfo object stores information about the graphics adapter installed in your system. The GraphicsInfo object has no constructor or methods; Abaqus creates the GraphicsInfo member when a session is started.

If you execute Abaqus/CAE on a remote system and display the main window locally, the glx server is your local machine and the glx client is the remote machine. This definition of client and server follows the X11 naming convention. If you execute and display Abaqus/CAE on the same machine, you will typically see identical values for both the name of the server and the name of the client.

The members are all read-only.
