BUG: The message
- ERROR: PLIO: reference out of bounds on mask
occurs when the image is not 2D. This can be a conceptual problem
for data which define a higher dimensionality but with length of 1;
e.g. [2048,2048,1]. This is effectively a 2D image but some
IRAF tasks designed for 2D images can have problems with this.
The workaround is simply to use a 2D image section:
Of course one can also convert the image to 2D with imcopy or imslice.
STATUS: No updates are currently planned and users should use the workarounds
noted above.
