polypars -- edit the polygonal aperture photometry parameters


USAGE

polypars


PARAMETERS

zmag = 26.00

The zero point offset for the magnitude scale.

mkpolygon = no

Draw the polygons on the screen.


DESCRIPTION

The zero point of the magnitude scale is determined by zmag. If the mkpolygon switch is enabled polygons are marked on the screen.


EXAMPLES

1. List the polygonal aperture photometry parameters.

	ap> lpar polypars

2. Edit the polygonal aperture photometry parameters.

	ap> polypars

3. Edit the POLYPARS parameters from within the POLYPHOT task.

    da> epar polyphot
	... edit a few polyphot parameters
	... move to the polypars parameter and type :e
	... edit the polypars parameters and type :q
	... finish editing the polyphot parameters and type ^Z

4. Save the current POLYPARS parameter set in a text file polynite1.par. This can also be done from inside a higher level task as in the above example.

    da> polypars
	... edit some parameters
	... type ":w polynite1.par"  from within epar
