This lets one write
ScaleBar(1, "kpc")
instead of the slightly redundantScaleBar(1, "kpc", "astro-length")
.Note that changes only occur in the constructor; "auto" is not when later calling set_dimension (directly or via the property) because that property's mutable semantics seem a bit fuzzy anyways: what happens if one sets the dimension to something incompatible with the units? I would believe
ScaleBar.dimension
should be a readonly property directly derived fromScaleBar.units
.Closes #70.
