The PSF centroid is computed only for Huygens PSF. Is it computed as a 'centre of brigthness' of the PSF irradiance distribution?

Regards

Hi Jose,

Are you referring to the 'Use Centroid' control on the Settings tab? This will locate the center of the plot of the geometric image centroid, and is therefore the centre of brightness of the geometric spot irradiance distribution.
