Description
RemoveBins - no interpolation This rather brutally sets the bin values to 0. This 0 values will be included in the summing performed in DiffractionFocussing, pushing down the values in that region.
MaskBins MaskBins is more clever. While if you look at the data it will appear that it has simply set the values to 0 it has also set a series of flags inside that mark those bins to not be included in further claculations. This means that when you Focus the data these values are simply missed out of the summing that is performed.
I can see that I need to add some details on this to the user help pages of these two algorithms.
