FEMM currently doesn't have a built-in way of doing this. It wouldn't
be that difficult to add this functionality.  However, the reason that
I didn't design this in is because the peak values are often not very
meaningful. Around corners in permeable material, the solution can be
nearly singular--the exact peak value has a strong dependence on local
mesh density.
