FarFieldCollection

A collection of solution far fields for this solution configuration.

Example

application = cf.Application.GetInstance()
project = application:NewProject()

    -- Add a far field request to the far field collection

configuration = project.Contents.SolutionConfigurations[1]
farFieldCollection = configuration.FarFields
farFieldRequest = farFieldCollection:Add3DPattern()

    -- Remove the far field request from the far field collection

farFieldCollection:Item(farFieldRequest.Label):Delete()

Inheritance

The FarFieldCollection object is derived from the Object object.

Usage locations

The FarFieldCollection object can be accessed from the following locations:

Property List

Count
The number of FarField items in the collection. (Read only number)
Label
The object label. (Read/Write string)
Type
The object type string. (Read only string)

Method List

Add (properties table)
Create a far field using the table of properties. (Returns a FarField object.)
Add (starttheta Expression, startphi Expression, endtheta Expression, endphi Expression, thetaincrement Expression, phiincrement Expression)
Create a spherical far field calculation request. (Returns a FarField object.)
Add3DPattern ()
Create a 3D pattern spherical far field calculation request. (Returns a FarField object.)
AddHorizontalCutUVPlane ()
Create a horizontal cut UV plane spherical far field calculation request. (Returns a FarField object.)
AddRequestInPlaneWaveIncidentDirection ()
Create a far field calculation request in the plane wave incident direction. (Returns a FarField object.)
AddSquareGrid ()
Create a square grid pattern Cartesian far field calculation request. (Returns a FarField object.)
AddVerticalCutUNPlane ()
Create a vertical cut UN plane spherical far field calculation request. (Returns a FarField object.)
AddVerticalCutVNPlane ()
Create a vertical cut VN plane spherical far field calculation request. (Returns a FarField object.)
Delete ()
Deletes the entity.
Duplicate ()
Duplicates the entity. (Returns a Object object.)
GetProperties ()
Returns a table of properties representing the state of the object. The properties table can be used with the SetProperties method to change multiple properties of the object in one step. (Returns a table object.)
Item (index number)
Returns the FarField for the given index in the collection. (Returns a FarField object.)
Item (label string)
Returns the FarField for the given label in the collection. (Returns a FarField object.)
Items ()
Returns a table of FarField items. (Returns a UnsupportedType(List of FarField) object.)
SetProperties (properties Object)
Modifies the state of the object using the provided table of properties. This method is used to modify multiple properties of the object in a single step.

Static Function List

GetDefaultProperties ()
Creates a table containing the default settings to create an object. (Returns a table object.)
