Hi learning forum,

I am working on writing the script for a simple FDTD simulation of the microdisk cavity.

I suffered the problem that I cannot find any code for setting apodization related settings on the profile.

I used add profile code for this. Thanks for your help in advance!.

# Field profile

addprofile;

set("name","XY field_profile");

set("monitor type",7); # 2D z-normal

set("x",0);

set("x span",3*radius);

set("y",0);

set("y span",3*radius);

set("z",0);

Are you referring to the time apodization settings in this tab?
You can use the set command for modifying the monitor apodization settings in a script, for example set("apodization", "Start");. A useful trick is to input ?set in the Script Prompt with the monitor selected, this will print out all the settings that the "set" command can change for this object:
