SliceViewer: View workspace with a rotation (?)

Description

Xiaoping and Christina want to view Q space, but aligned along one of the crystal axes, e.g. put a* along the x direction, b* in the x-y plane, and c* towards +z.

Basically, this is a simple rotation matrix to apply when plotting (no skewing etc.).

How to handle this in the GUI???

Is saying non axis aligned rubber band box just too simple?

  • Summary changed from SliceViewer: Allow non-aligned slicing to SliceViewer: View workspace with a rotation

It is actually more complicated than that, they basically want to view a rotated (in 3D) version of the data set.

A simpler way to handle it might be to create the MDEventWorkspace with that rotation built in: aligning the 'x' dimension with the a* vector, 'y' in the a*-b* plane, 'z' in the c* direction. I'll have to talk to Christina/Xiaoping to see if that would be sufficient...

This should be handled by rebinning to the desired types of coordinates. The SliceViewer should remain with perpendicular axes and slices; anything else is asking for too much trouble.

I believe Andrei has the task of making a friendly UI for specifying the rebinning of it.
