Postprocessing

This section lists modules for creating and editing plots in AEDT. They are accessible through the post property.

Note

Some capabilities of the AdvancedPostProcessing module require Python 3 and installations of the numpy, matplotlib, and pyvista packages.

Note

Some functionalities are available only when AEDT is running in graphical mode.

AdvancedPostProcessing.PostProcessor

Contains advanced postprocessing functionalities that require Python 3.x packages like NumPy and Matplotlib.

from pyaedt import Hfss
app = Hfss(specified_version="2023.1",
             non_graphical=False, new_desktop_session=True,
             close_on_exit=True, student_version=False)

# This call returns the PostProcessor class
post = app.post

# This call returns a FieldPlot object
plotf = post.create_fieldplot_volume(objects, quantity_name, setup_name, intrinsics)

# This call returns a SolutionData object
my_data = post.get_solution_data(expressions=trace_names)

# This call returns a new standard report object and creates one or multiple reports from it.
standard_report = post.reports_by_category.standard("db(S(1,1))")
standard_report.create()
sols = standard_report.get_solution_data()

report_templates.LimitLine	Line Limit Management Class.
report_templates.Standard	Provides a reporting class that fits most of the app's standard reports.
report_templates.Fields	Provides for managing fields.
report_templates.NearField	Provides for managing near field reports.
report_templates.FarField	Provides for managing far field reports.
report_templates.EyeDiagram	Provides for managing eye diagram reports.
report_templates.Emission	Provides for managing emission reports.
report_templates.Spectral	Provides for managing spectral reports from transient data.

Icepak monitors

FaceMonitor	Provides Icepak face monitor properties and methods.
PointMonitor	Provides Icepak point monitor methods and properties.
Monitor	Provides Icepak monitor methods.
