HFSS15: Defining Variable Material Properties

When defining or modifying a material’s properties, each material property value in the View/Edit Material window can be assigned a project variable. Simply type the project variable’s name in the appropriate Value box. Project variables are used for material properties because materials are stored at the project level.

For example, define a project variable with the name MyPermittivity and define its value as 4. To assign this property value to a material, type $MyPermittivity in the Relative Permittivity Value box for the material. Be sure to include the prefix $ before the project variable name, which notifies HFSS that the variable is a project variable.
