Description of the bug

When I tried to get Solution Setup data from existed HFSS 3D Layout, I missed "AdaptiveSettings" data.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Open exist HFSS 3D Layout Project
   h3d = pyaedt.Hfss3dLayout(project=example_h3d_prj, version=aedt_version)

2. Get Setup Data
   setup_list = h3d.get_setup(exist_setup_name)

3. Check
   setup_list.props <- No "AdatvieSettings" key

Hi @ANSYS-KOREA ,

After investigation, I realized this information is not part of the .aedt file, for that reason PyAEDT is not able to grab it to populate the props dictionary. I discovered that this data is obtained from the EDB file, and AEDT internally is parsing the setup and finally it is shown in the UI.

So the workaround is play with PyEDB to get the data:

from pyaedt import Hfss3dLayout

from pyaedt import Edb
import os

aedtapp = Hfss3dLayout(version="2024.2")

aedb_dir = aedtapp.project_file.replace(".aedt", ".aedb")

edbapp = Edb(aedb_dir,
cellname=aedtapp.design_name,
isreadonly=True,
edbversion=aedtapp.desktop_class.aedt_version_id,
isaedtowned=True,
oproject=aedtapp.oproject,
)

setup_props = edbapp.setups["HFSS Setup 1"].adaptive_settings

aedtapp.release_desktop(False, False)

If you need to SET the data, I suggest first to load the PyEDB file, set and save, and then open the EDB file in a HFSS 3DLayout.

For Layout pre/postprocessing I encourage you to use PyEDB:
https://github.com/ansys/pyedb

For simulation, you can choose either SIwave or HFSS 3DLayout.

Samuel
