NEW: Solution to Fan Plot Inflexibility #387

Closed carleyjmartin closed 1 month ago

carleyjmartin commented 2 months ago

New Feature

Name: manual fan plot data_array keyword or something

module: fan.py

package: plotting

Scope

This new feature will allow the user to make an array of data in the same shape as a fan plot (i.e. 16 by 75 or similar) which can be taken by the fan plot code and plot just that data on the plot. Users can manipulate the data from fitacf files however they like, pick out specific data or do stats on multiple scan before plotting. This also reduced the number of issues we have relying on picking scans out of the data with non-standard values being used in files or just complicated experiements.

What will the feature not do? Will not do any statistics or specific features for any specific CPID - That is up to the user to decide what is appropriate for their study or data.
