This may also help to find shaded regions on the detector.

=== ugly diffraction pattern ===
If the spots are split or unclean, you may get a seemingly terrible match between observed and calculated spot positions:
***** REFINED SOLUTION BASED ON INDEXED REFLECTIONS IN SUBTREE # 1 *****
REFINED VALUES OF DIFFRACTION PARAMETERS DERIVED FROM      2916 INDEXED SPOTS
REFINED PARAMETERS:  AXIS BEAM ORIENTATION CELL
STANDARD DEVIATION OF SPOT    POSITION (PIXELS)    11.74
STANDARD DEVIATION OF SPINDLE POSITION (DEGREES)    5.94
which leads to very many reflections being rejected from refinement:
  ***** INDEXING OF OBSERVED SPOTS IN SPACE GROUP #  1 *****
      1594 OUT OF    27897 SPOTS INDEXED.
        0 REJECTED REFLECTIONS (REASON: OVERLAP)
    26303 REJECTED REFLECTIONS (REASON: TOO FAR FROM IDEAL POSITION)
The fix is to e.g. double the parameters
MAXIMUM_ERROR_OF_SPOT_POSITION=  6.0
MAXIMUM_ERROR_OF_SPINDLE_POSITION=  4.0
which then leads to less rejections:
***** INDEXING OF OBSERVED SPOTS IN SPACE GROUP #  1 *****
    11669 OUT OF    27897 SPOTS INDEXED.
        2 REJECTED REFLECTIONS (REASON: OVERLAP)
    16226 REJECTED REFLECTIONS (REASON: TOO FAR FROM IDEAL POSITION)
and surprisingly good integration.
