avoidedlongestaxis ( newvalue=None )

Retrieve (no arg) or set (with arg) the boolean variable that stores whether we are avoiding the longest axis in the data collection strategy.

axcrit ( newvalue=None )

Retrieve (no arg) or set (with arg) the axis criterion to be used for cell standardizations

balloonhelp ( newvalue=None )

Retrieve (no arg) or set (with arg) the global boolean variable storing the status of the balloon-help.

bestresolution ( verbose=0 )

Use all information available to guess the highest resolution that should be obtained for a data set

cell ( scafile=None,  verbose=1 )

Locate the unit cell (returned as a 2-tuple of a 6-tuple with cell parameters and a 6-tuple with standard deviations) based on the name of a .sca or .hkl reflection file

cryogenic ( newvalue=None )

Retrieve (no arg) or set (with arg) the global boolean variable storing whether we are doing a cryogenic data collection.

delete ( variablename )

Delete a global variable

expert ( newvalue=None )

Get (no arg) or set (with arg) the expert mode boolean variable.

get ( variablename )

Get the current value of a global variable

gooddx ( verbose=1 )

Propose a good dx value for the measurement

habitusfilename ( newvalue=None )

Retrieve (no arg) or set (with arg) the last name used for a crystal habitus file name

hklcell ( hklfile,  verbose=1 )

Locate the unit cell (returned as a 2-tuple of a 6-tuple with cell parameters and a 6-tuple with standard deviations) based on the name of a .hkl file

kcdwavelength ( verbose=1 )

Retrieve the wavelength used for an experiment from a .kcd file in the current directory. In principle for internal use by this module.

maxaxis ()

Use all information available to guess how far unit cell axes can be reduced without losing accuracy in the strategy predictions.

overhead ( newvalue=None )

Retrieve (no arg) or set (with arg) the global variable storing the overhead time in seconds taken by 1 frame of data collection.

reciprocalaxes ( cell=None )

Retrieve (no arg) or store (with argument) the length of the reciprocal axes of the unit cell under consideration.

set ( variablename,  value )

Set a global variable to a new value

thetamax ( verbose=1 )

Use all information available to guess the best value for thetamax

wavelength ( newvalue=None )

Use all information available to figure out what wavelength we are using for the current experiment. With argument, store the current wavelength in a global variable.

xfilename ()

Use all information available to determine a good default filename for retrieving a unit cell

xwavelength ( verbose=1 )

Retrieve the wavelength used for an experiment from a .x file in the current directory. In principle for internal use by this module.
