getADDEImage tracking

[joleenf]

Hi,

Is there a hook in getADDEImage for tracking?

For example, I can load an adde image using tracking with JPythonMethods.load

Code: Select all

# Add tracking before loading in attempt to avoid processing before a complete image
# is available.
addeCallPrevious = server + "&" + dataGroupDesc + "&TRACK=1&" + keywords + "&POS=-2";
addeCallCurrent = server + "&" + dataGroupDesc + "&TRACK=1&" + keywords + "&POS=-1";
previousFile = JPyM.load(addeCallPrevious);
currentFile = JPyM.load(addeCallCurrent);

where server, dataGroupDesc, keywords are various parts of the ADDE call.

I am trying to do the same thing but with the more formal scripting commands. If I can't using JPythonMethods.load is just fine with me and probably for the McIDAS-X users who will be receiving this script.

There is now (well…it'll be in the nightly)! The parameter name is "track", and it defaults to False. You can use it like so:

Code: Select all

foo, bar = getADDEImage(track=True, **myOtherParams)
