Feature request: 3D region #132

Open acsch opened 2 years ago

acsch commented 2 years ago

Since we are working with cubes, a region should record 3 dimensions: coordinates and frequency. At the same time, when jumping to a region (through the region list button) it should jump in frequency as well.

Currently we use the 'name' (or comment) feature to record frequency (which is tedious) and that can get confusing if one wants to comment on a region as well.

I'm aware that this may cause a problem with the ds9 format, but it is possible to have two (or more) texts per source: only the last is shown as comment in ds9, so the frequency can still be recorded as a first comment.
