Edit default values

There is a way to edit the default values of disable certain fields in the smartscope session setup page to suit your facility.

In the SmartScope installation folder, open the shared/smartscope/default_collection_params.yaml as shown below:

atlas_x : 
  initial: 6
atlas_y :
  initial: 2
square_x :
  initial: 1
  readonly: True
square_y :
  initial: 1
  readonly: True
squares_num :
  initial: 3
holes_per_square :
  initial: 2
bis_max_distance :
  initial: 3
min_bis_group_size :
  initial: 1
target_defocus_min :
  initial: -2
target_defocus_max :
  initial: -2
step_defocus :
  initial: 0
drift_crit :
  initial: -1
tilt_angle :
  initial: 0
save_frames :
  initial: True
force_process_from_average :
  initial: False
  disabled: True
offset_targeting :
  initial: True
offset_distance :
  initial: -1
zeroloss_delay :
  initial: -1

Changing default values

There is one entry for each field in the form. The initial key is the default value displayed in the form.

Simply change the value and the changes will be automatically reflected on the webpage.

Disabling a field

To completely disable a field and always make it use the default value, simply add the disabled: True key for the field.
