Great idea, but the hard-coded imperial units make this very difficult to use for most of the world. Also the plugin still appears to be extremely buggy and unfinished.
It took me less than a day to start to be productive on my fork [0] for what i wanted to do. The default spacial units are actually microns (but yes they have their[1] examples multiplied by the inch conversion) and the wavelength stuff is in meters. But yes, technically its v0.0.1 so still rough around the edges.
Considering the vast majority of money in the space going into QEC software, I'm so grateful for their work. Was so much easier than trying to everything from scratch with my limited CAD work over the years.
Am I to believe someone smart enough to developing these kinds of optical systems will find it very difficult to multiply one number by another to convert to metric?
