How do I fetch Selection Information Data in Mechanical?

You can use the following snippet to export data to a Text file and then parse it to load data in your Python session.

cmd = '''DS.Script.exportDataToFileSelectionInfoPane("D:\\\\test.txt");''' 

ExtAPI.Application.ScriptByName("jscript").ExecuteCommand(cmd)
