From wbrisken@aoc.nrao.edu Tue Mar 9 15:17:46 2004 Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2004 10:40:02 -0700 (MST) From: Walter Brisken To: aips2-naug@zia.aoc.nrao.edu Subject: [Aips2-naug] Test report -- viewer / MS editting # Test report for viewer's ms selection features. 2004/02/13 parallax<2>% source /aips++/daily/aipsinit.csh /users/wbrisken AIPS++ Version 1.9 Build 411 parallax<3>% cd /home/parallax2/aips++/ab1123 use ab1123.ms as first test file. A VLA observation, L-band 15 channels, 1 flux cal, 1 phase cal, one target field, B-array. parallax<4>% glish include 'viewer.g' v := viewer(title='The amazing viewer') vdd := v.loaddata(data='ab1123.ms',drawtype='raster',autoregister=T) v.gui() Weird -- I had to explicitly register the data from within the DisplayData menu. I would have thought autoregister=T would have done that automatically. Reordering vdd := ... and v.gui() gets around this issue. David's new code not in daily yet, so I used: setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /users/dking/c/linux_rh9/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH to use his current version. Under Adjust... / MS and Vis. Sel. there is now an option to choose among the field IDs and spectral windows. * note that when the pane first appears, Field IDs = [1, 2, 3], which is quickly changed to [1,2,3] (ie no spaces) once the mouse hovers over it. * Not sure how, but I triggered a condition that is causing a message NORMAL: Animator callback called, but viewer is not animating to spew continuously. Restarted glish -- haven't triggered it since. *** Big problem -- when selection is changed, edits are lost unless the "Save Edits" button is pressed. *** Summary : Things worked well and smoothly, but I was surprised to see my edits get lost when a new selection is chosen. Suggestion : It would be useful if a selection could be applied at loaddata time. Often an astronomer will flag only the calibrators (a small portion of most observations) before calibration and will flag the target fields with calibration applied. _______________________________________________ Aips2-naug mailing list Aips2-naug@listmgr.cv.nrao.edu http://listmgr.cv.nrao.edu/mailman/listinfo/aips2-naug
