How to create an irregular near field request in FEKO?

For example, if I want to calculate the field distribution on a paraboloid, how can I create the near field request?

 

Thanks!

    Hi Yiran Cui

     

    It should be possible to sample near fields at arbitrary points using scripting, but these results would then be visualized as individual points rather than near field surfaces in POSTFEKO.

     

    Are you specifically interested in visualizing the near field results or would you like to use the near fields for examples as an equivalent source in a next model?

     

    Also just note that is is not possible to sample near fields indirectly on a metallic surface. The field points would have to be offset from the surface.
