[Raytrace] Stevich Paul in OSLO LT

Hello Ray Tracers,

I have been playing with OSLO LT for some time now, attempting to design 
a Stevick Paul that could be mounted alt-az.  This means shortening the 
ratio for secondary  primary FL from .41 to .33 or thereabouts so that 
the Primary and Tertiary are at approximately the same plane, and so 
attach the cells of both to the same simple box / framework.

I have come up with a design that appears quite good  - going by 
wavefront analysis, peak valley / RMS OPD, spot diagram, MTF, Strehl 
ratio, but there appears one major problem:  The distortion analysis 
shows a huge percentage compared to other  designs -350 Distortion % at 
about 2 mm distant from axis.

I don't quite understand the purpose or meaning of this, and I was 
wondering if, given the positive factors of the other measures, this was 
something to worry about.

BTW I must give Steve Fejes a big thanks for his OSLO tutorial - I would 
never have been able to grasp the technology without this work.

Regards, Henry Feinman
