Echoing Ansys GUI commands?

[laserablaatio]

Hi all.
I'm in the process of learning to write ansys .inp-scripts (I'm using Ansys 9.0).
Is there a way to echo the commands given in the GUI to the output window (or somewhere else where they could be found)?

An example may clarify my problem:
I know that to plot the elements one uses a GUI command Plot->Elements. I would like to know what is the exact command to achieve this action by observing the output window (or some other log file) - now I see something like
"produce element plot in dsys = 0", and nothing about "eplot" which I know to be right command in this case.

Thanks in advance for your answers. A solution to the problem would accelerate my learning process a lot!

I already observed that the stuff is found in the log file - I had just lost it to another directory as i had used the "File -> Change directory" somewhere in between and the log file was not moved to the new place.

You can do that with

File > write DB log file

Hope thats your question.

Either what Jalil suggested or you can look in the Session Editor under the main menu to observe what commands have been exectued since the last save. If you don't know a command simply do it via GUI and look in the session editor to see what the last command was.
