Saved Particle Lists are written in angstroms and not pixels

Hi, thanks for the report. It seems I didn't run into a model file with a pixel size specified while testing this (I used rather old files from the PEET example datasets).

I looked into the model format again, and there is both a scaling factor for x, y and z and a pixel size defined. I've committed a solution now in the development branch, which reads the pixel size and scaling factors and computes a final (isotropic) pixel size in angstrom. This is then set as the scale factor for particle origins in the "Select/Manipulate" tab.

Saved coordinates will be in pixels, and the pixelsize will be set to x_scale*pixelsize with units of Angstrom. Is this an acceptable solution?

You can try it using the attached build (extract the wheel file before installing). I'm still working on finding a way to set up daily builds.

Yes, that sounds good! Apologies for the daily in response. I apparently didn't set up notifications correctly to see when there was a reply to this.
