[[Image:PO18(1).png|thumb|250px|EM.Illumina's Navigation Tree.]]=== Grouping Objects by The Variety of Surface Type Types in EM.Illumina ===

EM.Illumina can only handle surface and solid CAD objects. Only the outer surface of solid objects is considered in the PO simulation. No line or curve objects are allowed in the project workspace; or else, they will be ignored during the PO simulation. You can define several PEC, PMC or impedance surface groups with different colors and impedance values. All the objects created and drawn under a group share the same color and other properties.

You can define several PEC, PMC or impedance surface groups with different colors and impedance values. All the objects created and drawn under a group share the same color and other properties. Once a new surface node has been created on the navigation tree, it becomes the "Active" surface group of the project workspace, which is always listed in bold letters. When you draw a new CAD object such as a Box or a Sphere, it is inserted under the currently active surface type. There is only one surface group that is active at any time. Any surface type can be made active by right clicking on its name in the navigation tree and selecting the '''Activate''' item of the contextual menu. It is recommended that you first create surface groups, and then draw new objects under the active surface group. However, if you start a new EM.Illumina project from scratch, and start drawing a new object without having previously defined any surface groups, a new default PEC surface group is created and added to the navigation tree to hold your new CAD object.
