Description

  • Fixed an issue with image rotation when OpenCv is installed
  • Removed support for OpenCL
  • Fixed Crosshair plugin to update the plot when image changes in channel
  • Fixed an issue where a thumbnail could be generated even if the channel was configured not to generate thumbs
  • Fixed an issue where wcs_world2pix() was called instead of all_world2pix() if wcs_astropy was used. This may have affected graphic overlays plotted in ra/dec instead of pixels.
  • Closing the reference viewer now stops all plugins first
  • Fix to RC plugin for better error handling if another process is using the port
  • Fixed a bug where using the fitsio loader the primary header was not set correctly in some instances
  • Additions to the "pg" backend to add functionality already in the Qt and Gtk backends
  • Fixed a bug with writing FITS files when using fitsio wrapper
  • Fixed a bug where creating a new workspace did not set the correct workspace type that was selected in the drop down menu
  • Updated pg widgets web backend due to changes to Tornado asyncio handling

  • Changes to 'histogram' and 'stddev' autocuts algorithms:

    • choice of sampling by grid now; useful for mosaics and collages
    • for previous parameter of usecrop=True, use sample=crop

  • Moved loading of FITS HDUs from AstroImage to io_fits module, encapsulating the details of this file format into the module responsible for loading those files:

    • added loading of FITS tables via the fitsio package in io_fits
    • TableView can now view tables loaded with either astropy or fitsio
    • inherit_primary_header in general.cfg now defaults to True and actually controls the behavior of always saving the primary header if set to False

  • Fixed a rounding bug in displaying sexagesimal formatted coordinates:

    • deprecated ginga.util.wcs.{raDegToString,decDegToString}
    • use ginga.util.wcs.{ra_deg_to_str,dec_deg_to_str} instead

  • Fixed an issue where the Catalogs plugin would not start correctly if astroquery was not installed

  • The keywords save_primary_header and inherit_primary_header in the AstroImage constructor are deprecated. Use these same keywords in AstroImage.load_hdu() or AstroImage.load_file() methods instead. Several other methods in AstroImage are deprecated as well; they were previously pending deprecation.
  • Fixed an issue where image might not be redrawn properly if scale or pan is set directly via a viewer's settings object (not the usual case)
