Instrument Viewer¶

Instrument viewer is a widget that shows the 3D instrument geometry together with the detector data. To access it, right click on the workspace name in the workspace dock widget, and click Show instrument from the context menu.

The instrument view consists of few tabs on the left, and the 3D view itself on the right. The tabs offer some useful functionality as follows:

• Render: This allows to visualize the detector data mapped to the instrument pixels.
• Pick: This tab allows to mouse hover over a detector pixel to show the data it recorded.
• Draw: This enables drawing sample geometrical shapes for masking, integration, grouping, or choosing regions of interests.
• Instrument: This shows the hierarchical tree structure of the instrument components.
