Defined 3D plot Data:
  Id: cut, Label: , Description: Unknown label cut
  Id: 1, Label: PB, Description: Pressure on broad face of cable, positive away from pole (N/mm**2)
  Id: 2, Label: PN, Description: Pressure on Narrow face of cable, positive in outward direction (N/mm**2)
  Id: 3, Label: FX, Description: Lorentz force in x direction / surface area (N/mm**2)
  Id: 4, Label: FY, Description: Lorentz force in y direction / surface area (N/mm**2)
  Id: 5, Label: FZ, Description: Lorentz force in z direction / surface area (N/mm**2)
  Id: 6, Label: FR, Description: Lorentz force in radial direction / surface area (N/mm**2)
  Id: 7, Label: FF, Description: Lorentz force in azimuthal direction / surface area (N/mm**2)
  Id: 8, Label: BMAX, Description: |B| max (T)
  Id: 9, Label: BMIN, Description: |B| min (T)
  Id: 10, Label: BMID, Description: |B| average (T)
  Id: 12, Label: JZ, Description: Iz (A)
  Id: 13, Label: CURVMIN, Description: Min. curvature k (1/mm)
  Id: 14, Label: CURVMAX, Description: Max. curvature k (1/mm)

Create the plot description

p3d = Plot3D.create("Custom 3D Plot for FR")
p3d.add_coilPlot("6")
assert p3d is not None

Create the plot

figure = plots.plots3d.plot_3d(p3d)
figure.show()
