Trimming Fits image in ds9

bedosti wrote on Jun 21, 2007

Is it possible to trim a fits image in ds9? I have a large image and I need to produce a new one, containing only a part of the original.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
Bedosti

AFAIK, DS9 can't crop an image directly. Within IRAF however you would simply do an IMCOPY of the subsection to a new image.
