Choosing curl elements in PDE

Hi,
I am solving an electromagnetic problem (3 dependent variables) in 3D geometry using weak form. I need to specify that curl elements should be used so that boundary conditions are properly taken care of. In 3.5a it could be easily described in the subdomain settings. However, as I look through the options in 5.0, it does not appear possible anymore. I can see in global -> discretization that order of the elements can be changed from quadratic. But where is the option to switch from Langrange? I would be grateful if anyone could help me locate this or understand possible alternatives.
Best regards,
Shakeeb

I guess it did not take me too long after the post to figure it on my own.
The solution is to visit Preferences in the Options menu. There in the Model Builder item on the left, check the box next to Discretization.
That will make the discretization choices visible in the PDE node.
