NXSPE file saved by mslice differs when reloaded

[Ian]

Expected behavior

A slice saved as NXSPE file and re-loaded should be identical.

Actual behavior

A slice saved as NXSPE and re-loaded has different Q,E coverage.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Open file, slice, save as nxspe.
Open nxspe file in mslice

Platforms affected

I’m running mantid 6.140 on Mac OS sequoia (15.7.3), and looking at data obtained on LET in the last cycle.

Dear @Ian

how are you saving the slice - is it in the using the Save drop-down button in the main interface?

Or using the “floppy disk” option in actual slice plot?

If the former, what is saved is the original nxspe file, so will default to the original (full) range.

If the later, this is not supported behaviour and should yield an error when you try to re-load the file…

Cheers,

Duc.

Hi Duc, I didn’t realise you could add images or I would have done so before.
I have saved using the disk icon in the plot window and chosen .nxspe as the format, then reopened from the data loading tab. See below for before and after.
