Hi
I have received this error in Feko while I wanted to check the current stimulation on a patch antenna with Prob Fed:
'Error 16030: Does not contain axes which can be plotted on a 3D view'
How can I fix it?
Thanks
Hi Emily
Sounds like an error from POSTFEKO?
Please attach your model, else some screenshots would help.
Same problem.
Unable to find an attachment - read this blog
my current distribution is odd as well.
The two faces below are set to dielectric properties, not copper.
Change them (to copper I presume) as shown in the below image and rerun.
I still cannot reproduce the POSTFEKO error. If you still get the error after the changes, please provide a screen shot.

When I run the FEKO Solver, these warnings and notices popped up. Will they affect the results?
This too - after the POSTFEKO loaded.
If you specify a too large thickness for the lossy metal, the warning will appear. Results could be wrong, but it's difficult to say how wrong. Might be worthwhile to compare with a PEC solution.
The str file is the file storing the solution. It is sometimes re-written. No need to worry about that.
Regarding the original error reported in this thread, this error can be triggered in POSTFEKO if the result cannot be plotted on the 3D view. For example, in your model @ebdaculan, the far field cannot be plotted on the 3D view because it contains a single point only. If you increase the number of points in the far field request, the far field pattern can be plotted. Did you get this error when plotting currents? I have not managed to reproduce the error when plotting the currents for your model.
The current plot is actually odd - but no error was reported. How do I increase the number of points in the far field request?
Thanks.

I have clicked DEFINE in CADFEKO and set MODEL UNIT in millimeter. The thickness of the lossy metal is set to 35e-3. Does that mean 35e-3 millimeters or 35e-3 meter?
The thickness value of 35.3e-3 when you have set the model unit to mm means 35.3 micro meters thickness.
Modifying/setup of far field requests are covered in the Example Guide, part of your Feko installation.
thanks
