Description
getRadius() currently has two different, though overlapping uses:
- to return the value of »Radius«, if the particle has such a parameter
- to return a number that indicates the extension of a particle in the xy plane, for use in computing particle correlations.
Per #1428, in case (1) getRadius() will become getParameter("radius").
Until then, and perhaps permanently, a different function name should be chosen for case (2). Proposal: getExtension().
Also, a more precise definition of what is computed in case (2) would be nice to have.
