Hello

Using Interference Example 1- A Simple Interferometer from SAMPLES folder I created a simple setup to test a right-angle prism with pyramidal error. At the end I wanted to save the file but OS just froze and didn’t react any more - even after a longer time. I ended the program in Task Manager and opened it again without problem. The file to-be-saved before seemed to have saved well and it was possible to continue the work. I tried to save again and OS froze again. And so many times… In my last trial I wanted to check Preferences and after some time in Preferences OS froze again.

All other sequential and non-sequential files that I have behave normally.

What could be the reason. Attached is the screenshot of the file.

Thanks, Dusan

Addendum 😏

If I delete detector rectangle the problem doesn’t exist any more.

It came to my mind that the rays from the source rectangle pass detector twice i.e. we might have a data overflow. But reducing the number of analysis rays and number of pixels doesn’t solve the problem. Placing detector as a first object also doesn’t work.
Any idea on where to place detector in order to avoid double-pass of light?
Thanks, Dusan
