Re: Is there a maximum threshold plugin for areaDetector?

["Marco A. Barra Montevechi Filho via Tech-talk" <tech-talk at aps.anl.gov>]

Specifically for Sirius applications, it would be useful to set all values above upper threshold to zero. If i understand the current plugin, it only replaces the values above upper threshold with the upper threshold value itself, right?

Im thinking about a threshold that determine which plugins will be replaced and the actual replacement value

Thanks for your time,

Marco

I agree that the clipping should be made more flexible.  I think it would be good to make this more general that replacing with 0 or the clip value.  Users might want to replace the clip values with non-zero user-specified values, for example -1, -2, etc.

I will work on this soon.

Hi Marco,

In the NDPluginProcess, there is a clipping option. It clamps the pixel values within a given range.

If by masking you mean zero the pixel value, there is no plugins I know of. I had such a need and wrote a request here,
