Summary

  • Keep the saved milling posture at the center of the reference FIB image for stage movement and automated milling.
  • Store the feature marker as an independent offset within the reference image.
  • Snap milling patterns to the marker after Save Position and 3D correlation.
  • Keep manual milling-pattern movement independent from the feature marker.
  • Allow marker movement from all feature views and automatically select the clicked marker in Create/Move mode.
  • Keep the Create/Move button and feature toolbar tool synchronized.
  • Prompt before discarding an unsaved marker position when switching features, leaving the FIBSEM tab, or restarting Create/Move mode.
  • Immediately restore the saved marker position after Discard and safely cancel the interrupted mouse gesture.
  • Warn when navigating to a feature without a saved FIB reference image.
  • Persist marker offsets while maintaining compatibility with existing projects.

Pull request overview

This PR updates the cryo-FIBSEM feature workflow so the feature marker (and milling-pattern anchor) is displayed and persisted at the user-clicked location within the saved FIB reference image, rather than implicitly assuming the image center.

Changes:

  • Introduces and persists a per-feature milling_feature_offset (relative to the saved FIB reference image center).
  • Updates UI/controllers/overlay drawing to use the offset for marker placement and for moving the milling-pattern anchor.
  • Adds/extends tests to cover offset persistence and propagation to milling tasks.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Cryo features now store a committed milling offset relative to the FIB reference-image centre. A pending offset tracks unsaved marker movement. Shared setters update feature state and milling pattern centres. Project save and load preserve committed offsets. Reference-image acquisition preserves the physical feature position and recalculates the offset. The overlay uses offset-based positions for editing, hit detection, and drawing. Milling controllers route position changes through the shared feature state.

215-218: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Select the dragged feature before storing its pending offset.

A user can drag a feature that is not main.currentFeature.value. This branch sets only _selected_feature, so lines 255-257 store the pending offset on the dragged feature. CryoFeatureController.save_milling_position persists main.currentFeature.value instead. Save Position can then commit the offset for a different feature.

Set main.currentFeature.value to feature before starting the drag.

Proposed fix
 if feature:
+    self.tab_data.main.currentFeature.value = feature
     self._selected_feature = feature
     DragMixin._on_left_down(self, evt)

@ilyushkin the one thing I'm not certain about is the behaviour when changing the position of a feature after a "position has been saved" (aka, it has a milling_feature_offset). I don't think there is much case where the user would want to discard the new position (unless this was really a mistake, but we should handle it by supporting "undo", instead). As I understand, this would happen mostly because the user wants to more precisely point a position of the feature based on the FIB image. In such case, the user wouldn't want to discard the position, nor acquire another FIB image. They would just want to have the current FIB image still be used as the reference image.

If so, wouldn't it make more sense to just automatically recalculate the milling_feature_offset after moving the feature?
