Reading some central pixels to establish exposure for flats in a script
Posted: 07 Dec 2018, 21:51
Hi,
I am trying to read a few central pixels in an fits image (mine is 32bit) does not seem to be a way to do this in a script so I have tried using fits.dll externally. However, this only reads 16bit image files!!
Is there a way to do this that I am missing?
Tried to convert the 32bit image to 16bit in AA5 script but no way?
Anyone know a way to do this or an external tool I can invoke from an AA5 script to measure an average pixel value to set exposure time.
Regards,
John
