More of a feature question?

Plotting a grid with all the baseline amplitudes of DATA/MODEL for example is an excellent diagnostic tool, and I did hack this feature in a previous version of shadeMS, but the format is so different from the regular plots that it might a bit too specialized for the software. However, the querying in the module is well suited for it.

Is there a consideration towards implementing this, or might there be a different software module that already does something like this?

Remind me what eactly you want to plot @JonahDW? We do have support for stuff like this:

Yes, this is what I am looking for! I didn't realize this was there, can I achieve this with the current version? If so, what would be the call?

o-smirnov commented 4 years ago

Something like

-x ANTENNA1 -y ANTENNA2 --aaxis CORRECTED_DATA:phase --ared std

...and std can also be e.g mean, max, etc.

Note that I do want to merge the aaxis and caxis functionality in a future release (see #69), as there's quite a bit of conceptual overlap right now, which makes it a bit confusing.

Okay, good to know, this is really nice!
