This is a public repository and documentation. We shouldn't be adding these kind of bits to the docs.

Also, several of these have been tested, just have varying levels of success.

Updated the "not available yet in 27R1" list to "Work In Progress" and also moved the "not tested" functions to that list

- ``export_force_animation``
- ``export_results``
- ``get_force_frequency_domain_amplitude``
- ``get_messages``

I don't think we will be making get_messages available. If a user wants the messages there is either the log file, or the user can pipe the terminal output to their own log, so the function is a bit pointless.

Thanks, I had a chat with Jack about the naming of these lists, and have also added UI functions to this list

- ``get_license``
- ``get_magnetic_graph_harmonics``
.. quit is in review
- ``quit``
