EXPGUI Wish List
New Features In Progress, Planned, or Requested
See the
EXPGUI documentation for a description of
the current features.
In Progress
-
Change space group
-
I plan to have a mechanism where one can specify a new space group, cell,
and reinput all atoms for the phase (to get site syms correct). One can
keep the old atoms for the phase or replace them. It will be possible
to do this manually or with file import capabilities.
File formats to be considered are:
the .CEL format from PowderCell and CIF. Probably not SHELX.
-
Import Atoms
-
This will appear on the add atoms dialog and will draw on the above.
Perhaps someday
-
Fixed background
-
I do not like fixed background use, but agree that fixed points are useful
for starting a fit. I would like to have a routine that fits a
Chebeshev polynomial to a set of fixed points input by a user.
-
Export to Platon
-
The platon viewer runs in UNIX and Windows
(http://www.ccp14.ac.uk/tutorial/platon/). It would be nice to be able to
export in the correct format and perhaps even fork the viewer.

-
Interface for Fourier routines
-
Perhaps with two parts: map compute set up options and viewing options.
Brand New
-
Transform Atoms
-
There is now a "xform atom(s)" button on the phase pane that
can be used to transform coordinates,
globally set the occupancy & Uiso and switch atoms between
iso/aniso and erase selected groups of atoms
-
Spherical Harmonic (ODF) Preferred Orientation
-
done
-
Delete phases
-
Instead -- change phase flags on the histogram page (appears when 2+ phases
present).
-
Define background types
-
The pull-down background selection menu now shows the names of the
background functions
