creating a line for x-y plot of |B|

["Turbo-Jon " <jon.crawley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

David, thank you for advice and example on how to creat a permamnent 
magnet material in the database. I now seem to have got the hang of 
FEMM and like it very much.

however there are a few niggly points which I would like to comment 
on, maybe I am doing something wrong.

1. The models I have been using are imported DXFs, this seems to be 
OK. However if I wish to add some points to the model in the FEMM 
editor in precise positions I am having trouble. firstly I create a 
point roughly where I want it to go, then I select it and press <TAB> 
which shows me the co-ordinates. I then change these to the cor-
ordinates I need (accurate to 0.01 of a mm), and a new point is 
created (why?). If I then select this and press <TAB> to view the co-
ordinates of the new point they appear to be different to what I have 
just entered ?

2. When viewing the XY plot in the post processor it would be nice to 
have a cursor option in order to inspect absolute value along the 
line.

3. Also it would be nice to be able to plot two XY plots on the same 
curve from 2 seperately defined line positions (so you can compare 
how the flux density varies through a gap)

I know I can't expect something as comprehensive as MAXWELL, but to 
be honest FEMM is far nicer to use !

Regards

Jon
