Why can't I pass a value with units to an opThicken

Why can't I pass a value with units to an opThicken unless it's passed in as a variable from function parameter definition:

see line 61 to 69 and note that this all works with no errors if I replace "1e-6*meter" with "offset" both of which are valueWithUnits but behave differently:

    var th1 = offset<0?-1e-6*meter:0;
    var th2 = offset>0?1e-6*meter:0;
    println(th1 ~ " - " ~ th2);
    println(offset);
    opThicken(context, id + "TemporaryThickness", {
            "entities" : faces,
            "thickness1" : th1,
            "thickness2" : th2
    });

the above code gives error: @opThicken: INVALID_INPUT

A few things I notice:

your th1 and th2 base case has no units. You need to replace 0 with 0*meter.
You are comparing offset to a value without units.
Additionally, you have a negative value for th1, both inputs for opThicken need to be positive.

Ah! thats what got me. Thank you. I origonally had "-offset" in there temporarily cause it was quicker then writing a hard value. When I came back in I swapped it out for a hard value but forgot I wrote "-" because in that condition the "offset" variable was negative and needed to be made positive . Also the reason my values where printing wierd is becasue they weren't printed individually. Apparently the "~" concatination turns a " 1.0 meter" into "ValueWithUnits : { "unit" : UnitSpec : { "meter" : 1 } , "value" : 1 }".
