Trying fefd.py and it keeps getting the error "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'femwell.mode_solver'"

Sorry this is my first time downloading packages and code from GitHub so I apologise if this is an easy fix.

I have installed femwell through the consol in spyder using pip install femwell, and copied the code directly from GitHub fefd.py. The error comes from the line "from femwell.mode_solver import plot_mode",

I am not sure what I have done wrong, because I have tried examples waveguide.py and fefd_2d.py and they work perfectly fine.

Hey Andrew!

the files in the package which are not documented should be seen more as "experimental". I.e. we started working on them but they are not yet finished (maybe I should move those to a dev-branch) nor tested.

For this one we moved the mode solver to a new location, so that file also needs to get that update (adjust import and adjust to the new API of the modesolver).
Feel free to do an PR on this :) I'm happy to help with feedback and guiding things :)

Hi Helge,

Sorry I did not realise it was not finished yet. Whats a PR? i am new to GitHub.

Thank you for your time,
Andrew
