Converting histogram bins to actual raw values
Hello all,
I have created a 2D wave that is a 2D histogram of two different waves. When I "create a new image" the 2D histogram's axes are in bins. How can I convert those bins to raw values? For example if the bottom axis is energy, I would like to see the actual MeV values that the bins correspond to, rather than row 1 to 2 and column 1 to 2, etc. Is there a way to display an image with a converted corresponding axis?
Alternatively, I can achieve this by doing "Display x vs. y", but I need to be able to subtract them. Is there a way to save a displayed graph to operate on? I hope this makes sense.
I attached the 2D image of what I have, and a scatter plot of what I would like to have.
Thank you

A cheat is to make a label wave and a wave for the location of the tick labels. The proper way is to change the wave scaling of your 2D wave.

Igor's Histogram operation changes the wave's scaling to reflect the bin values.
