xa, xb, ya, yb Set the bounds of the sub-image to be displayed in mapplot. EXAMPLE ------- 0>xyrange -10,20,0,0 The mapplot display area will be limited to: Relative RA: -10 -> 20 (milli-arcsec) Relative DEC: (The whole available range) 0> The second and subsequent lines are confirmatory messages produced by the xyrange command. PARAMETERS ---------- xa - The X (center-relative RA) coordinate of one edge of the required sub-image. Unless changed with the mapunits command, the units are milli-arcsec. xb - The X (center-relative RA) coordinate of the opposite edge of the required sub-image to xa. ya - The Y (center-relative DEC) coordinate of one edge of the required sub-image. Unless changed with the mapunits command, the units are milli-arcsec. yb - The Y (center-relative DEC) coordinate (milli-arcsec) of the opposite edge of the required sub-image to ya. CONTEXT ------- By default, the whole available map or beam area is displayed when you invoke mapplot. To change this behavior use the xyrange command to select the required sub-image for subsequent calls to mapplot. Alternatively, the displayed area can be changed interactively with the cursor and optionally saved (as though xyrange had been called) for later calls to mapplot - see help mapplot. RELATED COMMANDS ---------------- mapplot - Display map and beam images. loglevs - Set logarithmic contour levels for mapplot. xyrange - Set the boundaries of the sub-image to be displayed in mapplot. mapcolor - Select mapplot colormap type and transfer function. mapfunc - Change the transfer function used in mapplot. beamloc - Change when and where mapplot plots the clean beam ellipse.
