Hi Takanori,
Thanks for this suggestion, but could it be that this does not work? If I close the window from the desktop manager, the coordinates do still not get saved? Am I doing something wrong, and does this work on your system?

@scheres Let's make sure we are looking at the same thing.

If I close the window from the desktop manager

I mean closing the micrograph list window (relion_manualpick) with the top right [X] button of the title bar. Are you closing the window in other ways?

the coordinates do still not get saved?

This patch is about automatically recounting and updating manualpick.star, which contains the list of micrographs with picked particles, upon closing relion_manualpick. This does not automatically save picked coordinates in individual micrograph view (relion_display).

@scheres Do we want to auto-save picking results on individual micrographs (i.e. relion_display)?
If so, you can use a closing callback as in dd7d056.

That would be nice. I tried this actually yesterday, but could not make it work, as the picker uses a separated canvas. Perhaps you're better at this. But it is not too high on the priority list... People rarely pick manually these days.

It is hard to force relion_manualpick to recount particles when new coordinates are saved by relion_display. This needs an inotify mechanism. On the other hand, it is easy to auto-save coordinates in relion_display. However, I am not sure if this is desirable. People might accidentally click on a micrograph when inspecting AutoPick results. Such changes are discarded unless users explicitly save them. Do we want to automatically save instead?

OK, let's just leave it as it is. Thanks!

If we decide so, perhaps your commit b8cbd4f should be reverted for consistency.

ok, done.
