Hi,I am using iraf v2.12.1. (on sunstation) and I found a bug (possibly
corrected in more recent version ?) in the shiftfind task.
Indeed, the shift deduced by shiftfind use a convention in "x" and the
reverse convention in "y". In other words, the shift found for an image
is xref-xima and yima-yref while yref-yima would be expected. (note that
this is a "new" bug not present in ver. 2.11.3)Don't take this email into account if this is corrected in more recent
version of Iraf.Cheers,Dominique Sluse--

Hi Dominique,
SHIFTFIND is an STSDAS task so I've forwarded your question to
their helpdesk (help@stsci.edu). You should be hearing from them
shortly.Regards,
