Statistics on linear images

[gianpri]

Spot Histogram displays statistics of a nonlinear image. To assess the correct application of exposures to flat fields would be appropriate to display stationary linear image statistics. This is possible in a future update of BYEOS? Thank you

Sorry for the delay in reply. I mean just what it says Guyroch: load the image as a linear image in BYE instead of the 'embeded' camera-stretched image and then display the histogram based on that linear data.

John,

I am confused. Would you describe what you mean by "stationary linear image statistics"?

Are you asking to see the histogram of the linear, unstretched raw image data, rather than the current histogram which I believe is based on the non-linear JPG image data?

I think what John is asking is to load the image as a linear image in BYE instead of the 'embeded' camera-stretched image and then display the histogram based on that linear data.

That is what I thought, but I wanted John to confirm it.
