CloneMDWorkspace dialog.
Table of Contents
| Name | Direction | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| InputWorkspace | Input | IMDWorkspace | Mandatory | An input MDEventWorkspace/MDHistoWorkspace. |
| OutputWorkspace | Output | IMDWorkspace | Mandatory | Name of the output MDEventWorkspace/MDHistoWorkspace. |
| Filename | Input | string | If the input workspace is file-backed, specify a file to which to save the cloned workspace. If the workspace is file-backed but this parameter is NOT specified, then a new filename with ‘_clone’ appended is created next to the original file. No effect if the input workspace is NOT file-backed. Allowed extensions: [‘.nxs’] |
This algorithm will clones an existing MDEventWorkspace or MDHistoWorkspace into a new one.
If the InputWorkspace is a file-backed MDEventWorkspace, then the algorithm will copy the original file into a new one with the suffix ‘_clone’ added to its filename, in the same directory. Before the clone operation, the file back-end will be updated using SaveMD v2 with UpdateFileBackEnd=True. This may delay the operation.
If you wish to clone a file-backed MDEventWorkspace to an in-memory MDEventWorkspace, we recommend that you first call SaveMD v2 with UpdateFileBackEnd=True (if necessary), followed by a simple LoadMD call to the file in question.
