* At some beamlines, the ROTATION_AXIS should be -1 0 0 ("backwards") instead of the usual 1 0 0 ("horizontal"), or even 0 1 0 ("vertical") like at one of the PETRA Hamburg BLs, or even 0 -1 0 (vertical and backwards) like for some measurements at Diamond's ID24. We have no exhaustive list of these beamlines, and the frame headers do not always have this information, so the default chosen by [[generate_XDS.INP]] may be wrong and need manual correction.

* Eiger data may be used like this: a) run <code>generate_XDS.INP /path/to/XXX_master.h5</code> in an empty directory, to produce XDS.INP. b) start XDSGUI in the same directory (or navigate there, from its ''Projects'' tab) c) you will not be able to use the ''Frame'' tab for looking at the raw data, but you could use the tab to look at FRAME.cbf or other XDS-produced images. d) you should use/check/modify XDS.INP as usual; all the other tabs work normally.
