API Documentation - searching for functions

How to find functions in the API

Use the API Browser to search for existing functions. At the end of each page, a line shows to which module or class the function below (e.g. the XCoreModeling module).

Find more functions in the API

To browse functions which are not in the main s4l_v1 module, the option "Show Experimental Modules" has to be enabled in the Preferences:

This broadens the search for all Python modules in Sim4Life. The API browser now looks like this:

Hi Sylvain !

What does "Experimental" mean? Does it mean that they have not been tested or that the experimental API is bound to changes?

Best,

Andreas

"Experimental" in that context means that the API may change in the future and that backward compatibility may break.
