cgdisp - display two images side by side

Post by vincemcintyre »

This may be of interest to more people than just me so I thought I would post it here...

I want to use cgdisp display two different images next to one another. I tried the obvious:

Code: Select all

cgdisp device=/xs in=a,b nxy=2,1 type=pixel  #NB pixel,pixel gets rejected
but only one image was displayed. It appears I am stuck with stacking the images into a cube.

Is there another task I should be aware of?

Is this a useful feature for cgdisp?

Hi Vince,

it appears cgdisp is more concerned with plotting multiple images in the same plot, up to 6 or 7 of them. Adding functionality to plot independent images side by side might confuse the interface (or me) too much. As you mention, you can use imcat to produce a cube which it can plot in multiple panels, or you can produce pdfs and print them two to a page.

I don't think there is another task to do what you want more simply.

Cheers,

Mark
