Thanks Michael! Re: spelling error, it helps to have the misspellings in the manual as often I will copy and paste commands.

Hi, I have a line definition with several instances of the same element (think repeating FODO cell) and am trying to use matrix_output to get the matrix from each instance of an element to the end of the line. However, I keep getting an error when trying to use start_from_occurrence . I've attached ...

After reading the PRST-AB on simulating the Touschek effect (Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 13, 074201), I'm having a difficult time connecting what I read in the paper to the output files I get from elegant (i.e. I have 370 individual .los and .out files for the simulation I ran). I have a few question...

Hi, I downloaded the touschekExample file posted to the forum some time ago and started to play with it. My question is, how do I generate the loss rate vs s plots that I always see reported (see attached image from your PRST-AB)? I've looked through the all the output files (.bun, .dis, .out) and I...

Awesome! Yeah, the line thickness is also a problem when you make figures small enough to fit in a column for a standard conference paper. Thank you.

Hi, So with "conference season" approaching, I find myself generating lots of figures lately. Just a quick question. When I use sddsplot, often the vertical axis labels are much smaller than the horizontal. Is there a way to make them bigger (see for example, the attached image)? Usually I end up ha...

Thank you for the clarification. I was under the impression the kick happened once at the center of the magnet. This makes it clear.

Thank you Michael!

Hi, I wanted to simulate transverse kicks along a beamline. I did it two different ways: (1) using a kicker element placed between two halves of a quadrupole and (2) using the h/vkick parameter of the quadrupole itself. Using the same transverse kick for each, I find different results (i.e. sddsplot...

Michael,

Yes, the issue is running in cygwin on Windows. I'm looking at ways around the problem...

Thanks,

Would love if coreEmittance (and several other scripts) would work on Windows. It's becoming increasingly difficult in my workflow to transfer files back and forth to a Linux system.
