Description

It is not obvious to the user using the hint that they can use a Point3d in the following static method:

https://github.com/strusoft/femdesign-api/blob/a338ed7602c19cace46751ea551096686b5a02cc/FemDesign.Core/Supports/PointSupport.cs#L167-L178

Is there a way to specify this? This problem applies for more constructors and static methods than this specific example.

Research direction

Start by reading FemDesign.Core/Supports/PointSupport.cs around lines 167-178 and identify how the referenced constructors and static methods expose implicit Point3d conversions. Investigate whether the API can make those accepted conversions visible in usage hints, then determine how the same approach would cover the other affected constructors and static methods.
