image_ratio¶

sherpa.astro.ui.image_ratio(id=None, newframe=False, tile=False)¶

Display the ratio (data/model) for a data set in the image viewer.

This function displays the ratio data/model for a data set.

The image viewer is automatically started if it is not already open.

Parameters:

id (int or str, optional) – The data set. If not given then the default identifier is used, as returned by get_default_id.
newframe (bool, optional) – Create a new frame for the data? If False, the default, then the data will be displayed in the current frame.
tile (bool, optional) – Should the frames be tiles? If False, the default, then only a single frame is displayed.

Raises:

sherpa.utils.err.IdentifierErr – If the data set does not exist or a source expression has not been set.
