I set the dimesnions of the plane wave through script but when I ran the simulation, the dimensions of the plane wave change back.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In the picture is shown after I set it through script but when I ran the simulation, the plane wave becomes wide again<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When running the simulation it changes back again and doesn’t keep the dimensions I have set up through script. <\/p>\n

Here is the example script:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

switchtolayout;<\/p>\n

redrawoff;<\/p>\n

deleteall;<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

addfdtd;<\/p>\n

set(‘dimension’,1); <\/p>\n

set(‘x max’,50e-6);<\/p>\n

set(‘x min’,0e-6);<\/p>\n

set(‘y’,0);<\/p>\n

set(‘y min’,-2e-6);<\/p>\n

set(‘y max’,2e-6);<\/p>\n

set(‘z’,0.0e-6);<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

set(‘mesh accuracy’,8);<\/p>\n

set(“mesh refinement”,”conformal variant 0″);<\/p>\n

set(“mesh type”,”uniform”);<\/p>\n

set(“dx”,20e-6);<\/p>\n

set(“dy”,20e-6);<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

addplane;<\/p>\n

set(“name”,”plane wave”);<\/p>\n

set(“injection axis”,”y”);<\/p>\n

set(“direction”,”backward”);<\/p>\n

set(‘x’,30e-6);<\/p>\n

set(‘y’, 1e-6);<\/p>\n

set(‘x span’,20e-6);<\/p>\n

set(‘z span’,2-6);<\/p>\n

set(‘z’,0.0e-6);<\/p>\n
