Hello,

Recently i found a bug, when trying to create an angular repeater that
used an off-centered axis of rotation primarily 

/gate/SPECThead/ring/setPoint1 1. 0. -22.5 cm
/gate/SPECThead/ring/setPoint2 0. 0. -22.5 cm

however when executing this code I realized that it does not recognize
the units.  Being a complete newbie, I tried to look at the code and
came to these lines in GateAngularRepeaterMessenger.cc

68  Point1Cmd->SetParameterName("X1","Y1","Z1",false);
73  Point2Cmd->SetParameterName("X2","Y2","Z2",false);

should they altered to:
Point1Cmd->SetParameterName("X1","Y1","Z1",true);
Point2Cmd->SetParameterName("X1","Y1","Z1",true);
in order to account for units.  

Thanks,
Ananth Ravi
