Description

Adds an afocal lens module surface type to the document.

 

 

Syntax

LMNode = ModulePerfLensAfocalAdd( ent, mag )

 

 

Parameters

LMNode (Long)

Node number of the afocal lens module surface type added to the document.

 

ent As T_ENTITY

Data structure containing generic information about the surface (name, description, traceable, etc.).

 

mag As Double

Magnification at which the afocal lens module is operating.

 

 

Example

The following example demonstrates how to create, modify and retrieve information from an afocal lens module surface.

 

Sub Main

 

          Dim ent As T_ENTITY

          Dim CENode As Long, LMAfocal As Long

          Dim mag As Double

 

          'Add a custom element to store the LM surface

          ent.name = "Afocal LM"

          ent.Description = "Lens module representing an afocal lens"

          ent.parent = 2 'geometry

          ent.axesDrawable = False

          ent.limitsDrawable = False

          ent.traceable = True

          ent.neverTraceable = False

          CENode = AddCustomElement( ent )

 

          'Add an afocal lens module surface type

          ent.name = "Surf 1"

          ent.Description = ""

          ent.parent = CENode

          LMAfocal = ModulePerfLensAfocalAdd( ent, 5 )

          Print "Afocal LM added:"

          Print Chr(9) & "Node number: " & LMAfocal

 

          'Update the document

          Update

 

          'Modify afocal lens module radius and retrieve information

          ModulePerfLensAfocalSet LMAfocal, ent, 10

          ModulePerfLensAfocalGet LMAfocal, ent, mag

          Print Chr(9) & "New magnification: " & mag

 

End Sub
