    The author studies the convexity properties of generalized moment maps for Hamiltonian actions on \(H\)-twisted generalized complex manifolds introduced by \textit{Y. Lin} and \textit{S. Tolman} [Commun. Math. Phys. 268, No. 1, 199--222 (2006; Zbl 1120.53049)]. It is considered Hamiltonian torus actions on compact connected \(H\)-twisted generalized complex manifold and proved such convexity and connectedness for generalized moment maps. For this proof the author shows that all components of the generalized moment map are Bott-Morse functions, this fact is crucial in the proof, and it is obtained by the maximum principle for pseudoholomorphic functions on almost complex manifolds. By applying the arguments of \textit{E. Lerman, E. Meinrenken, S. Tolman} and \textit{C. Woodward} [Topology 37, No. 2, 245--259 (1998; Zbl 0913.58023)] the obtained results are extended to the case of Hamiltonian actions of general compact Lie groups on \(H\)-twisted generalized complex orbifolds.
