Actually, drag-and-drop DOES work, and is *dead* handy!

(But a considerable annoyance: you HAVE to open the sector to be able to click on the matrix line -- and then you have to drag that matrix past all the 300 (or whatever) images to get to the next sector. For many images, this really slow. Better to put matrix and images on separate sub-nodes.)

Dear Tom,

There is a straightforward way to do what you want. It is probably simplest to start by reading in only the images from the first segment (0-180). Then do the indexing, cell refinement and integration in the usual way.

Then read in the second segment of data. You will notice that in this second segment, underneath the Sector name, there is a line starting "Matrix" and this will be "Unknown". If you go to the Matrix line of the first segment, the matrix will have a name (based on the image template). Double click on the name of the matrix. A popup window (Matrix properties) will appear. Click on the "save matrix file" icon (a blue disc) and save the matrix with an appropriate filename.

Now go to the Matrix line of the second segment, double click (on Unknown) as before and this time click on the "Open matrix file" icon (a folder) and read in the matrix that you saved from the first sector. You can now process the second segment using this matrix.

It would be even nicer if you could "drag and drop" the matrix, this is on our "to do" list.

Best wishes,

Andrew

I am an imosflm novice and have a relatively simple question. I have a 360 deg data set collected in two swathes of 180 deg (one with phi=0 and omega going 0-180 and the second with phi = 180 and omega going 0-180). What is the easiest way to process the two datasets using a matching orientation matrix (or one rotated by 180 deg as it were) so that all the data can be merged together. Is there an easy way to do it in imosflm or must one process the two sets separately and then manipulate later with pointless before scalling and merging everything together?
Thanks in advance.
