Description
Two features have been requested by Francois:
| PropertyBool | PlaceFromCenter | When set to True, the Position property determines the position of the multipole centre, rather than the end of the bounding box. |
| PropertyDouble | CentreHalfLength | As per CentreLength; CentreLength should be suppressed and issue a warning, with the intention that CentreLength throws an exception in later releases advising user to use CenterHalfLength |
The name CentreLength was misleading as the multipole field length corresponds to CentreLength*2. The multipole placement caused confusion as the default is different to solenoid placement.
