regionmanager.fromtabletorecord - Function

1.1.2 Restore regions from a Table to a record


Description

This function restores a region from an CASA Table to the global name space.

For the tablename argument, you can specify an image tool, a table tool, or a string. If you give a string, it should be the name of an existing CASA table on disk (any kind of table).

If numberfields is F, then the field names of the record are the same as they are in the Table. Otherwise, the regions are put into numbered fields (the field names could be anything).

You can use the function namesintable to find out the names of the regions in the Table.
