We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Dear Niki,

 

thank you for coming back to me. I actually found this now - just for every reader: The tolerance control operand boundaries are ignored when "Merit function" or "User script" are chosen as tolerance criterion. This is good to know, thank you! 

Maybe a suggestion: When chosing "RMS Spot size" as criterion, could there be an "ignore lateral color" setting implemented as it is the case in the merit function wizard? This would make all the difference for dispersing optics like spectrographs, and it would also ameliorate the problem with exceeding the boundary limits. Just as a suggestion for a later version. 

Thank you again for your help with this! I always study the help files first, but it is so much that details are quickly overlooked. 

 

Best wishes,


Jurgen
