How can I get material properties with PyMechanical?

Daniel169

With PyMechanical embedded I open a mechanical model and want to access the material properties from the materials of the project tree (e.g. Young's Modulus).

I tried to reach it via ExtAPI.DataModel.Project.Model.Materials, but couldn't find the correct properties.

Is there another method to get the values?

Hi @Daniel169 Could you provide the code you've already tried? Otherwise the @Structures-Scripting-Team might be able to help
