The Axial Lead calculation has just been updated in V2018.05 pre-release to match the updated IPC-J-STD-001.

Tom,

I was using the calculator for an axial resistor footprint.  The datasheet only gives me the length of the leads prior to forming:




The calculator is looking for the Pitch.  How do I determine that?  Couldn't LE determine that based on the inputs?
