We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi, please use the following step to create streamlines:

1) Select Surface (or plane) where streamline points start.
2) Plot B_Vector field overlay (menu: Maxwell 3D >Fields > Fields > B > B_Vector).
3) In the Create Field Plot window, select “Streamline” checkbox.
4) Click “Done” button to view plot.
5) To improve Streamline plot overlay. First, go to Tools > Options > Fields Reporter Options. In the Streamline tab, change Stopping Criteria to 0.01%, and 20 (defaults 5%, and 5).
Then, double-click on the B-field color-key. In the Plots tab, select Streamline Plot. Use the slider on the Seed density spacing.
