Twin Builder: wiring a rectifier with a capacitor filter
---------------------------------------------------------
This example shows how you can use PyAEDT to create a Twin Builder design
and run a Twin Builder time-domain simulation.

Select version and set launch options
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Select the Twin Builder version and set the launch options. The following code
launches Twin Builder in graphical mode.
You can change the Boolean parameter ``non_graphical`` to ``True`` to launch
Twin Builder in non-graphical mode. You can also change the Boolean parameter
``new_thread`` to ``False`` to launch Twin Builder in an existing AEDT session
if one is running.
