Basic tutorial

You can initiate AEDT in non-graphical mode from Python using this code:

# Launch AEDT 2023 R2 in non-graphical mode
import ansys.aedt.core
with ansys.aedt.core.Desktop(specified_version="2023.2", non_graphical=True, new_desktop_session=True, close_on_exit=True,
             student_version=False):
    circuit = ansys.aedt.core.Circuit()
    ...
    # Any error here is caught by AEDT.
    ...
# AEDT is automatically closed here.

The preceding code launches AEDT and initializes a new Circuit design.

This code creates a project and saves it with PyAEDT:

# Launch the latest installed version of AEDT in graphical mode.
import ansys.aedt.core
cir =  ansys.aedt.core.Circuit(non_graphical=False)
cir.save_project(my_path)
...
cir.release_desktop(close_projects=True, close_desktop=True)
# Desktop is released here.

This code uses PyAEDT to access the Ansys EDB proprietary layout format:

# Launch the latest installed version of EDB.
import ansys.aedt.core
edb = ansys.aedt.core.Edb("mylayout.aedb")

# User can launch EDB directly from the PyEDB class.

import pyedb
edb = pyedb.Edb("mylayout.aedb")
