When taking input from stream, the d-spacing for a particular intensity can be
generated in a variety of different ways. You can choose which one with
---data=<type>. Possible types are:
-
- reflection : use peak positions from indexed reflections
- hkl : use the Miller indicies from indexed reflections, combined
- with a unit cell from PDB file provided with -p.
- d : use the 1/d values in the stream for indexed reflections,
- which were calculated at the time of indexing using the
- unit cell for the individual crystal. The individual
- unit cell should be close to the actual cell, meaning
- that this option should give a result close to "hkl".
- peaks : use peak positions from peak search
- h5 : use all pixels in the HDF5 file, excluding bad regions
-
-The default is
-.BR --data=d .

.SH HISTOGRAM OPTIONS
You can set the mininum and maximum 1/d values, in units of inverse meters,
-with the options
-.B --min=<n>
-and
-.B --max=<n> .
-When taking input from peak positions, The default behaviour is to use the entire detector extent from the geometry description file, which you with the -g flag.

+When taking input from peak positions, The default behaviour is to use the entire detector extent from the geometry description file, which you with the \fB-g\fR flag.
You can also adjust the number of histogram bins with the option --bins=<n>,
where n is an integer.
Scaling can be set to produce linearly, quadratically or cubically spaced 1/d
-values using --spacing=<type>. Possible types of spacing are:
- linear : linear (default)
- wilson : even spacing in Wilson plots (quadratic)
- volume : constant volume (cubic)
