Incorrect (and confusing) presentation of dQ from data in instrumental smearing section (Trac #1206) #1236

@butlerpd

Description

@butlerpd

Selecting use dQ Data currently displays dQ high and dQ low (for pinhole data at least), However dQ low is not labelled while dQ high is labelled as dQ[%].

Prior to !SasView version 4.1.0, the two values were labeled dQ high and dQ low. In 4.1.0 a change was made to the custom pinhole to be useful by asking for a dQ/Q in percent (see #941). The current labels probably were introduced accidentally in that work. However the proper fix should be to change the values presented to be dQ/Q[%] (as one label suggests) and then fix the labels to make it clear what is presented: dQ/Q low[%] and dQ/Q high[%].
