Can we edit outfiles created by PSSE using any other editor?
Hi, I want to edit the outfile prepared using PSSE so that modified outfile can be plotted afterwards using PSSPLT or Plotbook.

Hi, I want to edit the outfile prepared using PSSE so that modified outfile can be plotted afterwards using PSSPLT or Plotbook.
In PSSPLT it is possible to save an outfile in text format with activity RAWC (in File menu) and also to create a binary outfile from a text file!
The edited outfile can then be plotted with PSSPLT, Plotbook or with matplotlib. This outfile editing doesn't need any coding, just simple usage of PSSPLT activities and a text editor.
PSSPLT (and to some extend Plotblook) is a plot-editor. If your need is outside basic plot editing (scaling, selecting time frames or finding derivatives), just export data (channels) from the outs files (to csv, txt or xls) and 'edit' them in excel. Search the forum for 'dyntools', 'out to csv', 'channels' or similar keywords.
The problem is to perform the opposite here. i.e. exporting excel data to outfile. Is this possible by any means?
OUT files are binary and their format are not publicly available. You may need to contact PTI. But, what would be the benefit to create an "edited" out file? Once you have the raw data in excel (or similar), existing tools can post-process the data free from the limitations in PSSe.
