Maxwell templates and arguments

This section lists all setup templates with their default values and keys available in Maxwell 2D and 3D.

You can edit a setup after it is created. Here is an example:

from pyaedt import Maxwell3d

Maxwell3d = Maxwell3d ()
# Any property of this setup can be found on this page.
setup = Maxwell3d.create_setup ()
setup.props["MaximumPasses"] = 5
setup.update ()
