[Simnibs-discuss] Question about the scripting electrodes and the connector with Python

[Oula]

Hi Gülce,

Could you share your script so we can have a look? The len(elec.plug) 
probably refers to the number of plugs on an electrode, so maybe you're 
trying to put multiple plugs on the same electrode.

Best,
Oula
