Thanks for the Transient FEM analysis tutorial! I've added categories to it.
I've also added it to the https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/FEM_Module#Tutorials page too.

What is missing is content in the Background section, with a link to this thread, an explanation of what the tutorial is about and what it achieves, and list of needs like FreeCAD minimum version, external dependencies and perhaps estimated length of tutorial...

Also we need to take your files off of the 'cloud' and store them somewhere else JIC those links disappear.

I've updated this thread's title and added the macro and example file from @Luftschraube to the issue #5966

Hi guys,
I saw that @FEA-eng already tested the code using V0.21.1, and I recently did the same (it worked). However, I'm not sure what's the goal of this feature, Could you please give me some information on how to procedure with this issue?
Should I modify the script importVTKResults to export multiple files at the same time?
