6 years ago Hi,
can the options['parity’] be linked to the final down sampling instead? Alternatively, can another option do that without having to relying on tricks? Most people measuring stars would prefer a PSF centered on the center of a pixel and not on the corner. Can that be made as the default option?
Cheers,
Andrea

@AndreaBellinihttps://github.com/AndreaBellini would like us to improve the documentation on obtaining supersampled PSFs. Here's the current section: http://pythonhosted.org/webbpsf/webbpsf.html#pixel-scales-sampling-and-oversampling
I understand that Andrea wanted a PSF sampled at a different pixel scale than the detector pixels, and was frustrated by the fact that options['parity'] = 'odd' determines the parity of the final down-sampled array and not the OVERSAMP extension. The answer ended up being to change the pixelscale attribute and supply an odd number of pixels to fov_pixels=.
Could you suggest how we should improve this section, @AndreaBellinihttps://github.com/AndreaBellini?
