Can we change the input of flux from W/m^2 to any unit?

[kittipongwangnok]

I just wondering about the plot of PHOEBE. Can we change the input file of flux from the unit of W/m^2 to another unit such as erg/cm^2/s/A related to the input flux?

Yes, there are several ways to do this depending on what exactly you want, all of which are described in the tutorials and API docs:

• the parameter units tutorial shows how you can input a parameter value (including array of fluxes) in a unit other than the default parameter unit, retrieve the value in any translatable unit, as well as change the default unit
• the API docs for b.plot list yunit as an optional argument if you want to keep the parameter units alone but just convert the axes when plotting.

Thanks, I'll check them out.
