Question: How can I use a custom glass definition

dibyendumajumdar opened this issue · comments

I am trying to model lens design from patents. With regards to the glass type, I only have the refractive index and abbe number for d-line. For example, 1.79668 and 45.5. As this is a Nikon patent I tried to see if there was any glass in the Hikari catalog matching this, but there isn't.

Is there a way to add my own glass type just using these two attributes?

Okay thank you for the information.
