Caveats
Handling of NaN and Inf values
Chips converts NaN pixel values to the minimum data value (and +Inf values to the maximum data value). This may make it difficult to differentiate those values from finite pixel values.

Missing minor tick marks for sexagesimal-formatted axes
Some minor ticks may not be rendered when an image is zoomed out and tickformat=%ra or %dec. This only appears to happen when the axis covers a large range (e.g. 10 degrees) and is relatively close to one of the poles.
As an example, there are no minor tick marks South of -60 in
which was created with the following code
chips> add_image('broad_flux.img', ['depth', 50, 'threshold', [0, 1e-6]]) chips> set_xaxis(['tickformat', '%ra']) chips> set_yaxis(['tickformat', '%dec']) chips> set_axis('all', ['tickstyle', 'outside']) chips> zoom(0.9) chips> set_plot_aspect_ratio('fit')
Gamma correction is ignored in SAO color maps.
True color images cannot be added when using only a single red component.
This will default to being a pseudo-color image.
True color images cannot be thresholded or inverted.
Colorbars will only display a single alpha channel in the PDF output. A spectrum will have unexpected results
