HeyHaving a problem using the apall routine as outlined in the IRAF guides. When I read in an image and go on to define apertures, the routine seems to be plotting a spectra rather than a pixel count in the y direction. Basically it looks to me that the x and y axis are backwards to what IRAF expects them to be. And without it being the right way, It cant extract the spectra.Any suggestions on how to fix this would be really good. Seems odd that IRAF defaults to having dispersion vertical on the ccd and spacial dispersion on the horizontal plane. I thought most CCD's were the other way around as is mine.Thanks a bunch.
Adam

Do an "epar apextract" and reset the 'dispaxis' parameter. This is what allows the dispersion to run in either direction, it sounds like the default is just different from what you need.

This worked fine Thanks.Another issue now is that i save the aperture details for use on the next ccd image.
Then do:$ apall a2600265.fits ref=database/apa2600263And i get an error saying that Refernce apertures cannot be found. I'm following a guide. So I dont think its something I have done wrong. Its definitely written the file from the previous CCD image to database/apa2600263

I think what you want to do is set the 'reference' parameter to be the name of the image who's solution you want to use, not the name of the database entry.
