I red the manual but still have more questions than aswers. As far as I can see, the interferogram is calculated in the exit-pupil. Please correct me when I&#8217;m wrong. So&hellip;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;font-family: Calibri;font-size: 11.0pt\">&hellip;how can it be, that I can choose different surfaces? What kind of calculation is used when you switch the surface? POP or raytracing?<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;font-family: Calibri;font-size: 11.0pt\">&hellip;how can it be, that you can choose &#8220;image&#8221; as surface in the case shown below (modified Twyman Green file out of the sample directory). The image surface is conjugated to the point source, so you don&#8217;t have a interferogram in the image-layer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;font-family: Calibri;font-size: 11.0pt\"><span>&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;font-family: Calibri;font-size: 11.0pt\">I can&#8217;t find anything helpful in the manual.
