> The commenting out was introduced by @kraus in 595b4b83 .. perhaps he can comment. Note that the class at that time was called `Bend` : https://gitlab.psi.ch/OPAL/src/blob/595b4b83818596b5f7a72e086cbbda4325f70aa8/src/Classic/AbsBeamline/Bend.cpp
- @kraus The dipoles in Opal-T used to support field gradients in version 1.6 and before. When I rewrote Opal-T I disabled it to speed up the development. However it was my intention to re-enable it (but didn't happen). I still think that we should support the quadruple component.
