Fitting 'total water' profile

[barthac]

I have split my profiles into different peaks. When I want the total water, I add the areas from the different peaks. However, I can't fit this total water with your fitD function since it is not technically a 'profile'. Is there a way to turn my list of total water contents into a profile so that I can fit it?

Try profile.areas = your summed area list profile.plot_area_list()

Actually, no, that won't work because it's going to re-make the areas every time. Let me fiddle with it.

pynams updated - you should be able to set the profile.areas directly and then it'll use those in the plotting command.

Great, thanks!

Let me know if it works, and if it does, you can close the issue.

Oh, it's not profile.plot_areas_list(), it's the usual plot command

It worked! Thanks!

It just occurred to me to add a caution: Because profile.plot_area_profile no longer automatically updates the profile.areas based on the current baselines, if you plot an area profile, change baselines, and then want to plot the new areas for the new baselines, you must first update the profile.areas by running profile.make_area_list()

I updated profile.get_baselines() to automatically run profile.make_area_list() so this problem doesn't come up and the areas are automatically updated.
