Getting Started

Femtet is equipped with the Microsoft Visual BasicĀ® macro functions.
The Femtet operations can be automated with macros.
Please use macros to increase the simulation efficiency.
It is operational with Excel2013 or newer.
This is a reference manual of the class library to operate Femtet with VB/VBA.
You must be familiar with Microsoft Visual BasicĀ®.
Tutorial is available.
To activate macros, preparations are needed.
-
Femtet can be operated by Python script from Femtet version 2019.
For details, please refer to [How to Operate Femtet Macros by Python].
-
With upgrading of the modeling kernel in Femtet2018,
the ID's of face and edge topologies after the modeling operation may change from the previous version.
Specifically, macro error occurs in the boundary condition processing,
or the boundary condition is set to an unintended location.
In such a case, it it necessary to correct the topology ID.
See If a Macro created with an older version of Femtet does not work correctly for how to correct the topology ID.
