PyAEDT method/s for copying over objects!

[Abhi-SimuTech]

Hi,

I wish to copy all objects (solids, sheets including RLC boundaries, and ports) from one HFSS design of one project to a design (active design) of another project (active project). Or, alternatively, from other designs of the same project to the active design.

What will be the suitable PyAEDT method or sequence of methods/steps to achieve this?

Thank you in advance.

Regards
Abhi

If you want to copy a design into a new project, you can use this method:

https://aedt.docs.pyansys.com/version/stable/API/_autosummary/pyaedt.hfss.Hfss.copy_design_from.html

Or only the objects:
https://aedt.docs.pyansys.com/version/stable/API/_autosummary/pyaedt.hfss.Hfss.copy_solid_bodies_from.html

If you want something more advanced, you will need to loop all objects, PyAEDT has all the methods needed to tackle this Automation.

Thanks

Could you provide another example, it is not clear and I am really struggling with defining the design argument.

[Abhi-SimuTech]

Basically, I wish to copy all objects from Base_Model1, Base_Model2, and Base_Model3 to Base_Model (whic is the active design) inside the project Kymeta_Base_Model.

It is not clear from this example what it needs as the "design" argument. How do I modify for my above purpose?

[Samuelopez-ansys]

primary_design = pyaedt.Hfss(designname="Base_Model")

second_design = pyaedt.Hfss(designname="Base_Model1")

primary_design.copy_solid_bodies_from(design=second_design)

Thanks Samuel, it worked. Additionally, I needed to change the argument "object_list=None" from None to the list of objects from the design.

Thank you very much.
