It uses a method of defining a poly line at the edge of the 2d plane of interest, moving it to the other edge of the plane by variable dx, adding a parametric sweep in dx and then creating a contour plot of my simulation, setting the geometry to polyline, the primary sweep to distance, and the secondary sweep to the dx variable. Unfortunately this method fails and always generates a degenerate contour.
