Load optics tables

[GNiendorf]

Currently you can only save a given geometry as a csv file, but you cannot load that csv file directly from TracePy. Also, the ability to load optics tables from other ray tracing software such as BEAM4 would allow us to validate TracePy's outputs

I found a way to plot two configurations, one with a centered field angle, the other tiny tilted., by multiple use of ray_plane and plotyz functions. Is there a way to change color by field as in Zemax for instance? Or can I use standard plot functions from matplotlib?
Thanks,
Igor

For this you can just pass in the pltparams parameter: tp.plotyz(geo, ray_group, pltparams={'c':'blue'})
