@petrvanekrobe I talked to Honza and he said that the physical unit of Frost should be "Degree". Is this correct?

It could be view that way as it "opens up the beam" a bit, but not only on the edges.

I think what he meant was this: we specify frosts as (typically): 2°, 5°, 20° In many units, we do not even specify what frost we use, instead, but we sometimes mention: "frost goes from 60° to 75°", typically in wash units.

So if we say in physical properties "Degree", then we go from 0 to 5°, what will do visualizer do? Because it must be "beam ° + frost °", so that is what probably should happen. + fuzzy edge should be applied, not only on the beam edge but also on gobo edge...
