Hello OpticStudio Users,
Starting in the Ansys Zemax OpticStudio 2024 R2.02 release scheduled for September, the Cost Estimator tool will be removed from the Production Tools group found under the Tolerancing Tab of OpticStudio's main menu. You can still get real-time cost estimates using the ISO Element Drawing. These changes will simplify the Cost Estimator tool and enable better maintenance as we begin to make improvements to the ISO Element Drawing itself.
In addition, LaCroix will be removed as a provider for the Cost Estimator in order to streamline their customer experience. LaCroix continues to be a valuable partner and collaborator to Ansys Zemax OpticStudio.
Thanks for your attention,
Lisa
