1.1.1 Set new Coordinate System
Description

This function replaces the Coordinate System in the image. Coordinate System are stored in and manipulated with the Coordsys tool. The Coordinate System can be recovered from an image via the coordsys function.

Note that changing the Coordsys tool has no effect on the original image, until it is replaced with this function.

Example

"""  
#  
print "\t----\t setcoordsys Ex 1 \t----"  
ia.fromshape(shape=[10,20])          # Make image  
mycs = ia.coordsys();                # Recover Coordinate System  
incr = mycs.increment(’n’);          # Get increment as numeric vector  
incrn = incr[’numeric’]  
for i in range(len(incrn)):  
  incrn[i] = 2*incrn[i]  
incr[’numeric’]=incrn  
mycs.setincrement(value=incr);       # Set new increment in Coordinate System  
ia.setcoordsys(mycs.torecord());     # Set new Coordinate System in image  
mycs.done()
