Oh okay, I was thinking of C++ std::vector<char> which behaves differently :-/ Switching between languages back and forth is not something I'm good in, appearently. > You should be able to copy the values using array slicing, something > like: > > pb_pixels[:] = fits_pixels > > or: > > pb_pixels[:, :] = fits_pixels OK, I hadn't been familiar with that syntax at all - need to catch up reading on this. However, it doesn't work (altough probably for another reason): Traceback (most recent call last): File "./guiclient.py", line 433, in on_Result self.__updateresult() File "./guiclient.py", line 385, in __updateresult pb_pixels[:, :] = fits_pixels TypeError: Array can not be safely cast to required type I guess Python fears truncation. However I ensure in advance the values won't be truncated. How can I convince Python that it may safely assume that is true?
