    Hi,

     

    datanames section will describe only the general datanames valid for all solvers.

    For solver specific datanames, there are these "codes" that you can request. You can either call them by these names or their ID_codes.

    For getting these, I usually run this script from the installation, and select the entity that i want to check what datanames are available, and it shows a list of them.

    "D:\Program Files\Altair\2020.1\hwdesktop\hm\examples\scripts\entity_attribute_table.tcl"

    In the example below, for OptiStruct you could retrieve the element angle by using the dataname=\$THETA
