Happy to know it can be useful! Just keep in mind that it's still fairly bugged for an extensive usage. Because the issue is maybe with the way Inkscape handles python extensions, it might take a bit before it'll be stable.
I’m very excited about this. But I’m I’m also interested to hear why you chose to build this instead of using Zemax’s sequential mode. I’ve written two bespoke ray tracers in my career and to this day I wonder if I should have written them as zemax extensions. Is it just cost?
Zemax would definitely be a more professional option, but I never got the opportunity to dive into it. Also this is more for quick plots than for complex optics
It’s almost definitely cost! Zemax is what, a 5-digit price for the full pack? Prohibitively expensive for anyone but those deep inside the industry who really get their bang for the buck.
