Hi support team

I tried to simulate 'How to model holograms in OpticStudio' as described in:

https://my.zemax.com/en-US/Knowledge-Base/kb-article/?ka=KA-01795.

The article talks about two files: construction_1.zmx  &  construction_2.zmx needed in order to simulate OFH.zmx file.

However, I can't find these 2 files in the zar. files you attached to the article: 

So, where can I find them? Are they needed?

Thanks,

Tali M.

Hi Tali,

Yes, you will need these two construction files for the OFH file to work. These two files are included in the OFH.ZAR archive file. When you unpack this OFH.ZAR file, you can choose to view the list of files included, and you'll see these two construction files are included there. 

When you unpack this OFH.ZAR file, OpticStudio will place these two construction ZMX files in the same folder as the OFH.ZMX files. And by default this should be the folder the path of which is specified in the Setup tab\Project Preferecnes\Folder. 

Let us know if you still cannot locate these two construction files.

Best regards,

Hui
