No need to apologize, glad you are are back.

I cannot speak for all electrical engineers, but I work with a variety of value types in complex polar form in addition to Amperes, i.e. Volts, MVA, and impedance, so "Amp:" and "Phase:" would not fit in all cases. Better to have more universal names that apply to all types of values.

I have no objection to "Length:" and "Angle:" or to "r:" and "theta:". If you wish to implement a difference pair of component names when CPXJ mode is selected, my preference would be "Mag:" and "Angle:" since that is the way I learned it in my EE course work all those years ago. (Again not trying to speak for all EEs, just my personal preference.)

Thanks for your continued work on this, I am anxious to try the latest version.
