3 To generate the layout script, click Yes.

A script that generates the coupler that you drew is written automatically.

Note: If you had just copied this text into this window and selected Simulation > Run Script rather than drawing the coupler, the coupler would have been drawn in the Layout tab. You may find drawing and then Generating Script a convenient way to learn the script syntax.

4 Remove the following line from the script (see Figure 19):

• InputPlaneMgr.DeleteAll

You will put the input plane in the layout instead.
