Feature Request: Imbalanced Tilts #7

Closed bbarad closed 1 year ago

bbarad commented 2 years ago

I mill with an 11º angle, so mill with a starting angle of -11º. Because of that, the tilt range I can use are limited to around 48 (our tilt controller is a little dodgy past ±60º, I prefer not to use it). I'd like to be able to go past +37º, though - that extra tilt range won't give much structure information but helps a lot with segmentations. Would it be possible to define a larger tilt range and just have "extra" tilts get removed/not used instead of throwing an error?

Happy to work on this an submit a PR.

I was asked this before, so I am willing to implement it. It should be easy since I have a skip flag for every branch of every position. I just have to add a check if all positions are set to "skip" and in that case avoid tilting to that angle altogether. I'll put it on the list!

Thanks very much! Sorry to add so many things to your list but sounds like they are all not too painful!

This is now possible in v1.4!
