3.5.2.2 Unapply flags — action option ’unapply’

The unapply option allows unflagging of data based on the selected flag commands. This choice opens the sub-parameters:

action              =  ’unapply’        #  Action to perform in MS and/or in inpfile  
                                        #   (apply/unapply/list/plot/clear/extract)  
     flagbackup     =       True        #  Automatically backup the FLAG column before execution  

As in action=’apply’, it is possible to make a backup to the *.flagversions file by using flagbackup=True.

In order to guarantee that only the data selected in the command is unapplied, the framework will first unapply the selected rows and then re-apply the overlapping data that got unapplied in the first pass. This is a true unapply action, but it will take longer to process because it will re-apply all the remaining commands that have APPLIED = True!
