FarField

A solution far field request.

Example

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

    -- Create a far field request

farFieldRequest = project.Contents.SolutionConfigurations[1].FarFields:Add(0,0,90,180,30,60)

Inheritance

The FarField object is derived from the Object object.
