Customizing Ansys Electronics Desktop with Ansys ACT
With Ansys ACT, you can create custom applications or extensions to customize supported Ansys products, including Electronics Desktop.
The ACT Extensions window and the design wizards it contains (5G Wizard, HFSS Antenna Design Toolkit, HFSS-EMA3D Link, and Maxwell Eccentricities) are only available for the Windows version of the Ansys Electronics Desktop software. These items are not available when the software is installed on a Linux platform.
An ACT guided process extension enables you to leverage both the functionality of Electronics Desktop and the scripting capabilities of the Workbench/AIM framework API. You can manipulate existing features and simulation components, organizing them as needed to produce a custom automated process. A guided process extension is exposed in Electronics Desktop as a wizard that provides step-by-step simulation guidance within the application workflow.
To access ACT functionality in Electronics Desktop, open the ACT Home page by clicking View > ACT Extensions.
For more information, see ACT Simulation Wizards and Electronics Desktop Wizard in the Ansys ACT Developer's Guide.
