Klaus Thoeni proposed the following answer: Hi Colin, you can use various VTKRecorder [1] at once in your engines, e.g.: O.engines=[ ... VTKRecorder(iterPeriod=100,initRun=True,nDo=1,mask=,fileName='facets1-',recorders=['materialId','facets']), # static facets only exported ones (nDo=1) VTKRecorder(iterPeriod=100,initRun=True,maks=,fileName='facets2-',recorders=['materialId','facets']), # dynamic facets VTKRecorder(iterPeriod=100,initRun=True,fileName='spheres-',recorders=['materialId','spheres','velocity']), # spheres ] Set different groupMask four your meshes when you import them. Attention, the groupMask is used as Bitmask for determining interactions so you need to set the right number. I think default is 1, i.e. 0001. In order to have contact between you spheres and you facets you have to define somethink like groupMaks=3 (0011) for static facets and groupMaks=5 (0101) for dynamic facets. I didn't try but it should work. An other option is to define different materials (they can have the same properties) and filter the elements in paraview according to their materialId (Edit->Find Data). Make shure you export materialId with the VTKRecorder.
