hgiddenss/CST_App

Added two new methods:
loadMaterialFromLibrary(obj,material)
setSimultaneousPortExcitation(obj,ports,amplitude,phase,status,frequency,excitationString)

See help sections for more info

New method: pickPoints

deleteParameter method added

New Methods (addDispersiveMaterial), updated examples and functions

add InstallMacroScript for installing macros when CST_App fails to do so correctly

application.2019 to application

Fix addNormalMaterial so tanD and tanDM values can be added correctly

Remove command forcing CST to open 2019 version

Bug Fix for getSParams causing an error when only one parametric sweep had been simulated.

Bug Fixes, New Booleon Methods

Added support for retrieving s-parameter results from parametric sweeps using the method getSParams. Old method getSParameters still works as previous version but only outputs results from runID = 0. See example ManagingSParameters.m for more info.

Updated definition of background material in class creator to stop it setting it as something other than a vacuum by default. New methodto set background to other "normal" or "pec" materials. Add options for tand and sigma for normal materials.

Bug fix in dipole example,
New method getEFieldVectorAll returns EField from all mesh points in hexahederal mesh (time domain) simulations

I believe getEFieldVector is now returning the correct field and coordinate values in all planes. Examples to be updated...

Bug fix to getEFieldVector for y-z and x-z planes. A few other bug fixes that hopefully haven't effected other functionality, but not fully tested.

Fixed issue opening existing CST files
getFieldIDStrings outputs farfield strings which can be directly input as ffid into getFarField
New functions for plotting 3D patterns
getEFieldVector returns X,Y,Z grids so field can be plotted with 'surf'

New Image Icon

Updated image

Changed image icon

Bug fixes, improvement/changes to some methods and examples.
getEFieldVector now returns X,Y,Z coordinate points in matrices that can readily be used to plot the field in a surface plot.

Removed 'ports' property as this was unused. Tidied up code. Updated examples. Minor bug fixes. Changed input arg list for rotateObject method but will still work with old input argument list.

Significant improvements to plotting simulation setup in Matlab plot windows including plotting all objects in the same colors that they appear in the CST session. Macros will be installed locally, most likely into the app_data folder.

Updates: Extensive support for using parameters when building CST models. You should be able to use parameters to build all types of objects as the x/y values. Does not support expressions which include parameters.
New Example: AssignParameters.m

New Method: getPortSignals - read port signals into Matlab

Improvements and bug fixes to plotting simulation setup in matlab

New Functionality: - draw the CST simulation setup directly into Matlab axes by importing a specific CST solid or surface (in components) and plotting as surface object in Matlab
Method: drawObjectMatlab
Example: DrawSimulationSetupInMatlab.m

Bug fixes and minor improvements

Main Updates: Turn auto updating off and let Matlab send a long list of commands to CST so building can be done all at once. See 'BuildAtOnceExample.m'
New methods: deleteObject, addToHistory, update, setUpdateStatus, mergeCommonSolids

Improved file handling: CST = CST_MicrowaveStudio(); with no input parameters will return an object which is associated with the currently active mws project.
Improved handling of port numbers. All new ports will always be numbered consecutively.

Updates to CST_Microwave studio with some new functionality.
New Methods:
addPolygonBlock3D
connectFaces
addComponent
translateComponent
New Example:
SinusoidSurface

Added new functionality for handling parameters:
addParameter
changeParameterValue
isParameter
parameterUpdate
getParameterValue

New Method: getFieldIDStrings to return strings needed for getFarField and getEFieldVector
New Function: plot3Dmeshgrid for plotting the hetrahederal mesh used in TD solver in a matlab window
Bug fixes to example files

New method getMeshInfo
Extra example use in Examples/dipole.m.
Update to defineUnits so user can modify project
Bug fix so a CST_MicrowaveStudio object will be correctly created when a file already open in CST is passed as the input argument

Added method getEFieldVector to return the electric field value from e-field monitor for a simulation performed using the time domain solver and hexahedral mesh. Updates and bug fix in the Examples\dipole.m file

Bug fixed for defineFloquetModes method
