Recorders results during the analysis

Hi Dr. Frank

I realize that in new version of OpenSEES I couldn't get the Recorder results such as Eigen vectors and node displacements during the analysis whereas in older version I could. I mean the Recorder's Files don't fill until the process completed.
What should I do to get recorder's results during the analysis?

regards

Thank you Dr. McKenna

I wnat to get mode shapes from the recorder files.
I could get mode shepas on Dos screen but i don't know how can i use these format. I mean this code

recorder Node -node NodeTags -dof 1 \"eigen 1\" "

shows mode shapes on screen but I couldn't use this results.

in previous version of OS this code work and it gives me modes shapes in each step.

recorder Node -file {$OutputDir/$OutputFile$j.txt} -node NodeTags -dof 1 \"eigen $j\" "

We couldn't get the eigen vectors, could we?
