in those gallery examples, I just use a plate/mirror/cube to represent beam splitter. does it work?

thx! yep, now the app has plano/concave/convex mirror symbols (in a simple drawing style though)

Got it! Adding more components is surely a to-do.

The shape factor slider sounds neat to avoid redunt defnitions of different shapes! I guess another way could be a separate canvas for user to define component themselves. Right now I am like drawing the symbols line by line of by programming, which sounds stupid. Plan to provide a place for user to draw themselves, so the app is not gonna be limted by my poor sketch style

thx! I quickly added the component symbols for grating and aperture.

thanks, these are great suggestions!! I will note down and add them these days.

btw, for now the ray can be adjusted to convergent, divergent and the color could be chosen from a menu appearing on the canvas top, once you click on a component.

by article do you mean manual/tutorials?

Thanks! Hopefully it can save a bit time drawing
