Hi Nadav,

When you choose one configuration on any analysis, OpticStudio will use only this configuration (with its corresponding data) for all calculations and graphics. Therefore, you can not simulate the formation of images for the three configurations at the same time. 

However, you can optimize across configurations. To select which (or all) configurations to optimize, open the Optimization Wizard from the Merit Function Editor. Depending on the selection, OpticStudio will build the appropriate merit function for one or all of the available configurations.

Best,

Berta

Hi Nadav,

Just to be clear, is there a specific reason why you're defining all of these fields in separate configurations? If all the fields are not entering from the same Entrance Pupil, it sounds like you might want to enable Ray Aiming. In fact, there is a checkbox setting that you can define which will allow each field point to have it's own pupil shift for systems which are highly tilted/decentered:

If you're unfamiliar with Ray Aiming, we have a couple of handy Knowledgebase articles that you can take a closer look at:

• How to use Ray Aiming


• What is the Pupil Shift and how is it calculated?

This would then allow the STOP surface to be properly filled with rays, meaning the resulting analyses would be more accurate, and so I don't think there would be a need to define your field points in three separate configurations. Of course, if I'm missing anything in your needs here, let us know!
