Andor ROI #73

Closed YagoDel closed 5 years ago

YagoDel commented 5 years ago

Are the CrossHairs working on the Andor? i.e. can you repeatedly tick and untick the ROI box without the CrossHairs messing up? I can't, but I can't tell if it's a bug or if it's because I'm using an imaging CCD instead of a spectroscopy CCD.

Is this a feature other Andor users would be interested in? @wdeacon @bd355 @cloudycarnegie @J-Griffo @bm412

Started solving this by creating a new camera class, that has an understanding of ROIs.

Then the Andor can inherit from this class and it works.

It does get rid of the x_axis property though, so the merging with spectrometers is not currently possible.

Further worked on this (from here to here). Now it really works very well, by providing axis values (either x or y). If no one says otherwise, I think I will replace the Andor class fairly soon (it would be helpful to have people test it with their setups before I do)
