DataLab Version 0.9.2

🛠️ Bug fixes:

  • Region of interest (ROI) extraction feature for images:
    • ROI extraction was not working properly when the "Extract all regions of interest
      into a single image object" option was enabled if there was only one defined ROI.
      The result was an image positioned at the origin (0, 0) instead of the expected
      position (x0, y0) and the ROI rectangle itself was not removed as expected.
      This is now fixed (see Issue #6 - 'Extract multiple ROI' feature: unexpected result for a single ROI)
    • ROI rectangles with negative coordinates were not properly handled:
      ROI extraction was raising a ValueError exception, and the image mask was not
      displayed properly.
      This is now fixed (see Issue #7 - Image ROI extraction: ValueError: zero-size array to reduction operation minimum which has no identity)
    • ROI extraction was not taking into account the pixel size (dx, dy) and the origin
      (x0, y0) of the image.
      This is now fixed (see Issue #8 - Image ROI extraction: take into account pixel size)
  • Macro-command console is now read-only:
    • The macro-command panel Python console is currently not supporting standard input
      stream (stdin) and this is intended (at least for now)
    • Set Python console read-only to avoid confusion

DataLab Version 0.9.1

🛠️ Bug fixes:

  • French translation is not available on Windows/Stand alone version:
    • Locale was not properly detected on Windows for stand-alone version (frozen
      with pyinstaller) due to an issue with locale.getlocale() (function
      returning None instead of the expected locale on frozen applications)
    • This is ultimately a pyinstaller issue, but a workaround has been
      implemented in guidata V3.2.2 (see guidata issue #68 - Windows: gettext translation is not working on frozen applications)
    • Issue #2 - French translation is not available on Windows Stand alone version
  • Saving image to JPEG2000 fails for non integer data:
    • JPEG2000 encoder does not support non integer data or signed integer data
    • Before, DataLab was showing an error message when trying to save incompatible
      data to JPEG2000: this was not a consistent behavior with other standard image
      formats (e.g. PNG, JPG, etc.) for which DataLab was automatically converting
      data to the appropriate format (8-bit unsigned integer)
    • Current behavior is now consistent with other standard image formats: when
      saving to JPEG2000, DataLab automatically converts data to 8-bit unsigned
      integer or 16-bit unsigned integer (depending on the original data type)
    • Issue #3 - Save image to JPEG2000: 'OSError: encoder error -2 when writing image file'
  • Windows stand-alone version shortcuts not showing in current user start menu:
    • When installing DataLab on Windows from a non-administrator account, the
      shortcuts were not showing in the current user start menu but in the
      administrator start menu instead (due to the elevated privileges of the
      installer and the fact that the installer does not support installing
      shortcuts for all users)
    • Now, the installer does not ask for elevated privileges anymore, and
      shortcuts are installed in the current user start menu (this also means that
      the current user must have write access to the installation directory)
    • In future releases, the installer will support installing shortcuts for all
      users if there is a demand for it (see Issue #5)
    • Issue #4 - Windows: stand-alone version shortcuts not showing in current user start menu
  • Installation and configuration window for stand-alone version:
    • Do not show ambiguous error message 'Invalid dependencies' anymore
    • Dependencies are supposed to be checked when building the stand-alone version
  • Added PDF documentation to stand-alone version:
    • The PDF documentation was missing in previous release
    • Now, the PDF documentation (in English and French) is included in the
      stand-alone version

DataLab Version 0.9.0

New dependencies:

New reference platform:

  • DataLab is validated on Windows 11 with Python 3.11 and PyQt 5.15
  • DataLab is also compatible with other OS (Linux, MacOS) and other Python-Qt
    bindings and versions (Python 3.8-3.12, PyQt6, PySide6)

New features:

  • DataLab is a platform:
    • Added support for plugins
      • Custom processing features available in the "Plugins" menu
      • Custom I/O features: new file formats can be added to the standard I/O
        features for signals and images
      • Custom HDF5 features: new HDF5 file formats can be added to the standard
        HDF5 import feature
      • More features to come...
    • Added remote control feature: DataLab can be controlled remotely via a
      TCP/IP connection (see Remote control)
    • Added macro commands: DataLab can be controlled via a macro file (see
      Macro commands)
  • General features:
    • Added settings dialog box (see "Settings" entry in "File" menu):
      • General settings
      • Visualization settings

      • Etc.
    • New default layout: signal/image panels are on the right side of the main
      window, visualization panels are on the left side with a vertical toolbar
  • Signal/Image features:
    • Added process isolation: each signal/image is processed in a separate
      process, so that DataLab does not freeze anymore when processing large
      signals/images
    • Added support for groups: signals and images can be grouped together, and
      operations can be applied to all objects in a group, or between groups
    • Added warning and error dialogs with detailed traceback links to the source
      code (warnings may be optionally ignored)
    • Drastically improved performance when selecting objects
    • Optimized performance when showing large images
    • Added support for dropping files on signal/image panel
    • Added "Computing parameters" group box to show last result input parameters
    • Added "Copy titles to clipboard" feature in "Edit" menu
    • For every single processing feature (operation, processing and computing menus),
      the entered parameters (dialog boxes) are stored in cache to be used as defaults
      the next time the feature is used
  • Signal processing:
    • Added support for optional FFT shift (see Settings dialog box)
