SubFrame Selector-Culling the image data
« on: 2018 February 25 07:32:35 »
So I use to use another program for culling my data but since the .xisf format can not do this anymore. So I tried using the script in Pix Insight and obviously have it completely wrong as it didn't write one file to the directory I set. I had it set for FWHM < 3 and know for a fact that a good deal of the raw data was rated at less that 1.50 arc seconds. So why the failure? What is a solid expression (s) to use to sort out the best data. I want only data below 3 arc second FWHM. Much of it is in the 1.5" range. Is it better to use the raw or calibrated images. If raw then I can still use the other program. The other program listed 179 images below 3" where PI listed 0. Something obviously wrong in my settings but no idea where to look.

Try using "FWHM" instead of "FWHW" in the approval expression :)
