Description

I think we need some overhaul of the way we are using, displaying and controlling the ctf functions in Appion.
I have the following suggestions/requests:
- We need to be able to display the results of all the ctf algorithms by run name OR by highest confidence value. Right now we only have highest conf. value which makes it almost impossible to properly compare the outputs of various runs.
- Similarly we need to be able to select which run (or highest confidence value) to apply when correcting ctf. We should keep Ace, ACE2 and ctffind runs separate no mater what as they do different fittings so makes no sense to mix and match them.
- The displays need work. The ctffind one is pretty worthless I think - it is so pixelly that it is hard to know if there is any information content. It is also at a different scale than the fft that can be displayed so can't compare and see what it is fitting. It would be very nice to have the fitted curve of the ctffind overlaid on the data like ACE2 does. WOudl be godo to have this for both defoci vlaues when the image is astigmatic.
- Minor bug - the bin size int he ctffind interface mentions particle picking. And the doc popup is missing or not useful for some of the functions.

I am sure other people have ideas on this. I will ask Amber to make it a topic for discussion at the next Appion meeting.
