HFSS15: Modifying Vector Field Plot Arrows

To change the appearance of a vector field plot’s arrows:

1. Click HFSS or HFSS-IE>Fields>Modify Plot Attributes.

The Select Plot Folder window appears.

2. Select the plot folder you want to modify, and then click OK.

All plots in the selected folder will be modified.

A dialog box with attribute settings for the selected folder appears.

3. Click the Marker/Arrow tab.

4. Under Arrow Options, select one of the following arrow types:

5. Use the Size slider to increase (move to the right) or decrease (move to the left) the length and dimensions of the arrows. The arrows are resized relative to the size of the model geometry.

6. Select Map Size to scale the size of the arrows to the magnitude of the field quantity being plotted.

7. Select Arrow tail to include tails on all arrows.

8. Click the Plots tab.

9. HFSS plots arrows on a grid that is superimposed on the surface or object you selected for the plot. Under Vector plot, use the Spacing slider to increase (move to the right) or decrease (move to the left) the distance between arrows (grid points.)

• Select Uniform if you want the arrows to be spaced equally.

10. Select Real time mode if you want the changes to take effect immediately in the view window.

If this option is cleared, click Apply when you want to see the changes.

11. Click Close to dismiss the window.
