Hi David, I have it working now! It turned out that 1) and 2) were the problems. I have learned that clicking into a 2D geometry (with z=0) for the probe location does not necessarily give a probe which is actually in the 2D body (the probe output was zero because the z coordinate was nonzero - when I manually set it to zero, the probe output becomes nonzero). Furthermore, selecting the probe with the mouse is not always successful, I sometimes have to use the spreadsheet.
Thank you for your help! Matthias > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: David E DeMarle [mailto:[email protected]] > Gesendet: Mittwoch, 14.
