Error in evaluating sine phases

[massimo ceraolo]

Consider the enclosed model BugSources. the source voltages are correct (plot1.png).
Let us now set phase of sineVoltage component to {0,120,240} It should still create three sines equally spaced in time. However this happens not to be true (plot2.png).
Since the circuit is very simple, and uses only MSL components, I think this issue is severe.

The problem here is that the expression {0, 120, 240} is not converted from deg to radians, but just passed literally as a modifier; hence, the meaning is 0, 120 rad, 240 rad.

There is some ambiguity on the meaning of the units tab: when a literal constant is used, it is converted from the display unit to SI unit, while any other type of expression is passed literally as a modifier. Unfortunately there is no feedback about this from the GUI, one has to check the code in the text view. In this case, the array {0, 120, 240} is interpreted as an expression and thus used literally as a modifier.

In fact, what this ticket points out is that it is actually impossible to use displayUnit for parameter input of component arrays, which is a serious limitation.

@adeas31, do you think that also converting arrays of literal values from displayUnit to SI unit is doable for 1.13.0?
