rfinder overwrites ouput plots #1518

Open paoloserra opened 1 year ago

paoloserra commented 1 year ago

In case of an input MS with multiple target fields I only get the RFInder output plots for the last field. The reason is that the name of the plots is always the same (e.g., output/rfi_q_0/plots/movies/Time_2Dplot_movie.gif) and so the plots get overwritten as caracal works its way through all target fields.

we can correct this in the packaging of rfinder and next data release or does it need to be an urgent fix?

Not urgent, but thanks!

Ideally the output file name (e.g, a prefix) is a user choice in RFInder, and within CARACal we follow the usual conventions used also for other pipeline products.
