Methods for Unlinking a Mesh

When a mesh is unlinked, the simulation mesh is converted to a separate mesh part that can be edited. Two methods are available when unlinking a mesh.

Method 1: Unlink Mesh and Use New Ports

When the simulation mesh is unlinked, the geometry ports connected to the selected geometry remain, but equivalent mesh ports are created with the labels of the original geometry ports. For example, if a geometry port has the label “Port1”, the mesh port is labelled “Port1_1”.

Note: Solution entities applied to geometry ports are transferred to the new mesh ports.
Solution entities transferred to the new mesh ports include the following:
  • Sources
  • Loads
and in addition, also S-parameter configurations are updated accordingly.

Method 2: Unlink Mesh and Use Existing Ports

When the simulation mesh is unlinked, the geometry ports connected to the selected geometry remain, but equivalent mesh ports are created with new labels. For example, if a geometry port has the label “Port1”, the mesh port is labelled “Port1_1”.

Note: Solution entities applied to geometry ports are not transferred to the new mesh ports.
