Hi,
I'd like to export the VTK files at some interested strain level. It seems that using VTKRecorder in engines like:

VTKRecorder(fileName='vtkRecorder',recorders=['all'],iterPeriod=1000)

can only export the VTK files according to the iterPeriod. So I go to use VTKExporter to output the VTK files at the desired strain level. With [1] I can output the spheres, and I still need to output the walls which is defined as walls=aabbWalls([mn,mx],thickness=0,material='walls' (for triaxial test).

In [1] it mentions that using VTKExport can export:

spheres
facets
polyhedra
PotentialBlocks
interactions
contact points
periodic cell

I just wonder is it possible to export the walls using VTKExport?

Thanks
Leonard
