Is it possible to work on Ansys design in the software and do an EPR analysis after? #997

Information

What is the current behavior?

I'm trying to do an EPR analysis on my design. I don't even know if it should theoretically be possible but the analysis crashes when I'm changing the design in Ansys. I cannot do my design in Qiskit Metal as it is 3-dimensional.

Steps to reproduce the problem

Follow EPR analysis tutorial, change Ansys design before running eig_qb.run_epr() (e.g add a solid 3D JJ), then run analysis.

What is the expected behavior?

I don't know if it is possible at all but I'm looking for a workaround to do this analysis.

Suggested solutions

Any help would be greatly apprechiated!

It probably is theoretically possible. At least, if the problem is set up in the right way. Though I don't have much context to go off of here.

What kind of error are you getting? You can check also the log console in Ansys. Most likely issue with the connection between the two softwares and the way you set up the junctions on the EPR side.
