Author Topic: Option to use relative paths in drizzle and local normalization files  (Read 1739 times)

I started processing an image on one computer, then switched to a different computer. I found that I couldn't work with the drizzle and LN files because they refer to the original image files using absolute path names. I happened to put the images under My Documents, and the path on one computer is under /users/XXX while the other one is under /users/YYY. Would it be possible to use relative paths instead of absolute paths, at least as an option?

Thanks

This is already implemented since the initial versions of the DrizzleIntegration tool. On the DrizzleIntegration window, open the Format Hints section. Select the desired directory in Input directory. This directory will override the directories specified in .xdrz and .xnml files. This feature allows you to move .xdrz and .xnml files across different filesystems and machines.

Thanks Juan, I wasn't aware of that (obviously).
