class hyperspy._signals.common_signal2d.CommonSignal2D

Bases: object

Common functions for 2-dimensional signals.

to_signal1D(optimize=True)

Returns the image as a spectrum.

optimize : bool, default is True
If True, the location of the data in memory is optimised for the fastest iteration over the navigation axes. This operation can cause a peak of memory usage and requires considerable processing times for large datasets and/or low specification hardware. See the transposing section of the HyperSpy user guide for more information. When operating on lazy signals, if True the chunks are optimised for the new axes configuration.
