Hi <\/p>\n

I am writting a code which saves my temperature solutions directly as a text file after the solution is calculated. For the name of the .txt file I would like to also include the name of my system. In my project I have many systems and I want to just get the name (Display Text) of the system that is currently in use, without having to know its index in the project. <\/p>\n

My current code to get the Display name of the project and which runs in Mechanical looks like: <\/p>\n

\n
import wbjn<\/div>\n
WB_cmds=”””<\/div>\n
system1 = GetAllSystems()[1]<\/div>\n
my_name = system1.DisplayText<\/div>\n
returnValue(my_name)<\/div>\n
“””<\/div>\n
system_name=wbjn.ExecuteCommand(ExtAPI,WB_cmds)<\/div>\n
then I use the system_name to create a filepath where the txt file of the solution should be stored. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Unfortunately, this is not what I want because I would have to know the GetAllSystems index of every system and change it manually. 
I have also though about using GetSystem(Name=”Static1″), but I run into the same problem that I would have to know the name of the system to start with, rather than retrieving it from WB. <\/p>\n

Do you have any better approaches? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-251605","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
