Description
NMX detectors are identical squares and each one is attached to a robot arm so from the projection of the detector in 2d plots can't tell the users which detector is where so easily.
We should somehow include geometrical information, for example:
- which axis is fast axis/slow axis(along with axis pixel ids increase by 1 or 1280)
- which panel is in which position in a static 3d geometry image (good to have)
- direction of gravity next to the plot (like a compass)
At the beginning label of the detector and fast/slow axis on the plot would be sufficient.
This issue is from the live data reduction meeting for NMX on 13.02.2025

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the detector plot implementation and inspect how detector labels and pixel axes are rendered; done when each plot identifies the detector and indicates its fast and slow axes, with the optional 3D geometry and gravity indicators considered separately.
