The grid structure you observe is not actually HEALPix tessellation, but a bug in our drawing algorithm. Currently, we sum up all the tiles which leads to bright lines around the edges.
@cdeil - If you have time, we can continue the discussion in (https://github.com/hipspy/hips/issues/79) and I will try to get this fixed.
Hola, hola,
I've trying to build large plots based on DeCAPS color images available at Aladin and the displayed plots show an unwanted grid-diamond structure. The code is very plain, based in a "hips" example:
The image result is attached. Depending of the resolution of the image or the size, the grid is not the same, even changing color from white to red, etc. The diamonds look like healpix tesselation. I've added the "precise=yes" in make_sky_image, without improvements. I'm using Python 3.6 with fresh Anaconda3-5.3, in Mac Mojave. Thank you very much in advance. All the best.
