How to change maximum number of iteration steps

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello World.

My model is rather simple but will need more than 25 newton iteration steps to converge.
(I have this experience from version 3.5).

As 25 seems to be the default value of maximum newton iterations and I have no clue where to change this value I would appreciat your help. Any ideas how to tell the solver to keep solving?!

Thanks
Sebastian
