I've tried to use ExtAPI.Graphics.CreateAndOpenDraw3DContext() but I get a warning message stating that this method is obsolete and I should use Create3DContext method instead :

But where can I find this new method ?

    Create3DContext is actually not a single method but all the methods created in order to modify the graphics window.

    Below are some examples:

    elems = ExtAPI.DataModel.MeshDataByName('Global').Elements
elem = ExtAPI.Graphics.Scene.Factory3D.CreateMesh(list(elems)[:5])

body = ExtAPI.DataModel.GeoData.Assemblies[0].Parts[0].Bodies[0]
geo = ExtAPI.Graphics.Scene.Factory3D.CreateGeometry(body)

Point2D = ExtAPI.Graphics.CreatePixelPoint
Point3D = ExtAPI.Graphics.CreateWorldPoint
Vector3D = ExtAPI.Graphics.CreateVector3D

graphics = ExtAPI.Graphics

triad = graphics.Scene.Factory3D.CreateTriad(1.0)

arrow = graphics.Scene.Factory3D.CreateArrow(0.5)
arrow.Color = 0xFF0000
arrow.Transformation3D.Translate(Vector3D(0.5,0.5,1))

box = graphics.Scene.Factory3D.CreateBox(2.0, 3.0, 4.0)
box.Color = 0xFF0000

cone = graphics.Scene.Factory3D.CreateCone(3.0, 2.0, 1.0)
cone.Color = 0xFF0000

sphere = graphics.Scene.Factory3D.CreateSphere(2.0)
sphere.Color = 0xFF0000

with graphics.Suspend():

    p1 = Point2D(10,10)
    p2 = Point2D(10,100)
    p3 = Point2D(100,100)
    p4 = Point2D(100,10)

    coll = graphics.Scene.CreateChildCollection()
    l1 = coll.Factory2D.CreatePolyline([p1, p2, p3, p4])
    l1.Closed = True

    p5 = Point3D(0,0,0)
    p6 = Point2D(100,100)
    l2 = graphics.Scene.Factory2D.CreatePolyline([p5, p6])

    p7 = Point2D(20,40)
    text = graphics.Scene.Factory2D.CreateText(p7, "Coucou")

    wp1 = Point3D(0,5,0)
    wp2 = Point3D(0,0,0)
    wp3 = Point3D(5,0,0)

    coll = graphics.Scene.CreateChildCollection()

    l1 = coll.Factory3D.CreatePolyline([wp1,wp2])
    l2 = coll.Factory3D.CreatePolyline([wp2,wp3])

    shell = graphics.Scene.Factory3D.CreateShell([1.,1.,1.,2.,1.,1.,1.,1.,2.], [0.,1.,0.,0.,1.,0.,0.,1.,0.], [0,1,2])

    points = []
    for i in range(10):
     for j in range(10):
      for k in range(10):
       points.Add(Point3D(float(i)/float(10), float(j)/float(10),float(k)/float(10)))

    coll.Factory3D.CreatePoint(points,4)


    for i in range(5):
     for j in range(5):
      for k in range(5):
       point = Point3D(float(i)/float(2), float(j)/float(2),float(k)/float(2))
       coll.Factory2D.CreateText(point,str(i+j+k))
