See JIRA ticket: https://jira.stsci.edu/browse/JDA-33
Data used for testing: A 1D spectrum in ascii format with a column for wavelength and one for the flux.
Data location (if possible): Attached here.
Methods used for testing (e.g., commands or functionalities that were tested): Open specviz from terminal and use both "load data" and "loader wizard".
Traceback for error if applicable: See screenshots attached.
Description of the problem: I tried to load a 1D spectrum in ascii format with the first line as header (both with and without # to comment the line). Specviz returns the message "Could not identify columns containing the wavelength, frequency or energy.". I tried the wizard and I cannot choose the columns. When I close the wizard, it crashes with "Abort trap: 6".
Data and screen shots are in the JIRA ticket above.
I also failed to load an ascii table into specviz. I was at least able to preview it correctly in the Loader Wizard, but when I tried to "save to .py" it closed with the same "Abort trap 6" error message.
