  Hi.
  I am finding a problem when obtaining a 2D geometry from a 3D one.
  The problem is I don't know what numbers to put on "Simmetry multiplier" or "Model depth" to make the 2D results match the 3D ones. I am trying to simulate a very simple E core transformer, with both windings on the central leg.
  Thanks in advance

  Hi @JaiLopez,
  If you created the 2D design on XY plane, the number of symmetrical parts of your design on that plane is the symmetry multiplier and the depth of the model along the Z-axis is the Model depth.
