py4D-browser-transform 0.0.1

py4D-browser plugin that adds utility functions which transform the datacube

py4D-browser-transform

py4D-browser-transform is a plugin for py4D-browser that provides utility functions for transforming the datacube, currently including flipping, transposing, permuting axes. Other functions like cropping, resampling, and adjusting intensity offsets or scaling might be added in the future.

Installation

You can install py4D-browser-transform directly from GitHub using pip and git (assuming you have git avaialble):

pip install git+https://github.com/chiahao3/py4D-browser-transform

💡 Note:

• If you install into a fresh Python environment, py4D-browser and py4DSTEM will be automatically installed as dependencies so you don't need to install them first.
• If you already have py4D-browser installed, you can install this plugin into the same Python environment.

Usage

After installation, you should see the "Transform" submenu appear under the "Plugins" menu.
From here, you can:

• Flip or transpose the diffraction pattern.
• Permute dataset axes if your 4D dataset is not in the expected order.

These operations would direcly modify the loaded datacube, but will not affect the raw file stored on disk. You can export the transformed datacube to disk using File > Export Datacube.

💡 Note:

• The order of flipping and permutation matters so if you mix these two operations, you'll have to reverse the operaitons in the exact opposite order to get back to the original state. For example, if you permute and then flip/transpose, you'll have to undo the flip/transpose and then reset the permute.
