Mechanical ACT Documentation

Hello,

is there any consolidated documentation of commands, functions and properties for scripting in mechanical using python? I often got stuck looking for the desired function/property. ACT Reference quide is quite poor documentation. Also best practises as listing availible stuff in console are welcome. Thank you

There is API documentation here. FYI Mechanical API is NOT equal to ACT. You can use the Mechanical API within the ACT framework, but you can also access it directly a number of ways. Via the scripting console, python objects, etc....

I am also a big fan of the autocomplete of the scripting console that has integrated help text that pops up for reference of what methods do and what args are expected.
