Syntax

show(object)
show(object,EnableIndividualColors=false)

Description

show(object) displays the geometric structure of the specified object, which can be an antenna, array, AI-based antenna, platform, or shape.

example

show(object,EnableIndividualColors=false) displays the geometric structure of the specified shape in the specified color when the shape results from a Boolean operation.

This example shows how to create a vivaldi antenna and display the antenna structure.

h = vivaldi
h = 
  vivaldi with properties:

             TaperLength: 0.2430
           ApertureWidth: 0.1050
             OpeningRate: 25
           SlotLineWidth: 5.0000e-04
          CavityDiameter: 0.0240
    CavityToTaperSpacing: 0.0230
       GroundPlaneLength: 0.3000
        GroundPlaneWidth: 0.1250
              FeedOffset: -0.1045
               Conductor: [1×1 metal]
                    Tilt: 0
                TiltAxis: [1 0 0]
                    Load: [1×1 lumpedElement]


show(h)

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with title vivaldi antenna element, xlabel x (mm), ylabel y (mm) contains 3 objects of type patch, surface. These objects represent PEC, feed.

Create a circular shape without material properties and visualize the filled regions.

c1  = antenna.Circle
c1 = 
  Circle with properties:

         Name: 'mycircle'
       Center: [0 0]
       Radius: 1
    NumPoints: 30


show(c1)

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel x (m), ylabel y (m) contains 2 objects of type patch. These objects represent PEC, mycircle.

Create a circular shape with material properties and visualize the filled regions.

c2 = shape.Circle
c2 = 
  Circle with properties:

            Name: 'mycircle'
          Center: [0 0]
          Radius: 1
       NumPoints: 30
           Metal: 'PEC'
           Color: 'y'
    Transparency: 1
       EdgeColor: 'k'


show(c2)

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel x (m), ylabel y (m) contains 2 objects of type patch.
