fsleyes release history

This document contains the fsleyes release history in reverse chronological order.

1.1.0 (Friday 6th August 2021)

Added

  • New --interpolation option for mesh overlays, which allows nearest-neighbour or linear interpolation to be selected when colouring meshes with vertex data. This replaces the --flatShading option (!278).

Changed

  • The Location panel now displays the region label associated with the current vertex for mesh overlays which are being coloured with a lookup table (!278).

Fixed

  • Fixed a bug which was preventing the same colour map or lookup table file to be specified more than once on the command line (!278).

  • Fixed the Check for updates menu item - it now queries conda-forge for the latest available FSLeyes version (!279).

  • Fixed a bug which had broken volume navigation in the time series view (!283).

Deprecated

  • The --flatShading option for mesh overlays is equivalent to using --interpolation nearest (!278).

1.0.15 (Thursday 22nd July 2021)

1.0.6 (Monday 24th May 2021)

Changed

Changed

  • Text labels drawn on GL canvases are now created using matplotilb rather than [Free]GLUT (!221).

  • Removed dependence on [Free]GLUT - this means that fsleyes render can now be used on headless systems without using xvfb-run, as long as OSMesa is installed (!221).

  • The --lightPos command-line option (for the 3D view) has been changed to expect three rotation values (in degrees), which specify the position of the light source with respect to the centre of the display bounding box.

  • The FSLeyes plugin system now supports tools which are bound to a specific view panel (!234).

  • Many built-in FSLeyes control panels and tools have been migrated into the FSLeyes plugin system so that they are dynamically loaded as plugins, rather than being hard-coded (!234).

  • It is now possible to save and re-load view/control panel layouts with plugin-provided views and control panels (!234).

Fixed

  • Various fixes and improvements to the lighting effect on mesh overlays in the 3D view (!222).

  • When opening a melodic_IC.nii.gz file with the --autoDisplay'`/-ad``, option, the melodic_IC file is now selected by default, instead of the mean underlay (!219).

  • Fixed a bug in image texture preparation for complex data types, when running in a limited GL environment (e.g. VNC) (!220).

  • Compatibility fixes for newer versions of Jupyter notebook (!227).

Changed

  • Tweaked GL initialisation to avoid errors when running via XQuartz (!211).

  • Minor adjustment to Jupyter Notebook integration (!213).

  • New --cliserver option, allowing command-line arguments to be passed to a single FSLeyes instance.

Changed

  • fsleyes.overlay.PropCache - an equivalent class is now available in fsleyes-props.

0.21.1 (Monday February 5th 2018)

  • Adjustments to standalone linux builds, hopefully fixing the module 'wx' has no attribute '__version__' issue.

0.21.0 (Tuesday January 30th 2018)

  • FSLeyes is now able to load Freesurfer surface files, and mgh / mgz images.

  • The vertices of a 3D mesh (VTK, GIFTI, or Freesurfer file) can now be selected in both 3D and ortho views by holding down the shift key. If data is associated with the mesh vertices, it will be shown in the location panel, the time series panel, and the power spectrum panel. This feature is dependent on the presence of the Trimesh library, a new optional dependency.

  • Mesh vertex data is now shown on the histogram panel.

  • It is now possible to associate multiple vertex files with mesh overlays. For Freesurfer/GIFTI surfaces, if other vertex files are found (e.g. pial, white matter, inflated), they will be added as options.

  • Docked FSLeyes control panels can now be minimised by dragging the dock separator.

  • The 3D view now has a toolbar, and standard panels when it is opened.

  • The --version, --help and --fullhelp command line arguments can now be used on systems which do not have a display, and without Xvfb.

  • Initial display range for all volume overlays can now be set as a percentile, via the global --initialDisplayRange command line argument.

  • A small bugfix to 2D mesh outline drawing with weird reference image orientations.

  • Default 3D volume settings have been increased when running in an SSH/X11 environment.

  • Fixed some bugs with mask outline view.

0.20.1 (Friday January 11th 2018)

  • FSLeyes dependencies are now separated into core, optional and development dependencies.

  • Adjustments to standalone build environment.

0.20.0 (Wednesday January 10th 2018)

  • The location panel now has a history section, which contains a list of previously visited locations.

  • Volume display range can now be specified as a percentile on the command line

  • Colour maps and lookup table files can now be specified on the command line.

  • The --vertexData command line argument, for mesh overlays, can be specified multiple times. All vertex data files will be pre-loaded, and the first one will be selected.

  • New options on mask overlays to display the mask outline, and to apply interpolation on the display.

  • The threshold range for mask overlays is now exclusive - now, only values which are within the threshold limits are displayed. Previously, values which were within or equal to the limits were displayed.

  • Profile instances can now notify arbitrary listeners of mouse and keyboard events, instead of only notifying via sub-class methods.

0.19.1 (Wednesday January 3rd 2018)

  • Small fix related to per-view selected overlays.

  • Adjustments to per-view volume linking.

0.19.0 (Wednesday January 3rd 2018)

  • The selected overlay can now be different in different FSLeyes views.

  • Volume/timepoint properties can now be linked across views independently of other display properties. This is accessible via a new setting Link overlay volume settings in the view settings panel.

  • Ortho edit mode has a new Invert selection option.

  • Bug fix in time series and histogram panels regarding non-Image overlays (e.g. surfaces).

  • Work around in screenshot logic for a bug in matplotlib (see https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/10084).

0.18.2 (Thursday December 7th 2017)

  • The SliceCanvas no longer resets the pan/zoom settings when an overlay is added/removed.

0.17.1 (Monday Novermber 13th 2017)

0.17.0 (Sunday November 12th 2017)

  • Improved the version update notification dialog.

  • Fixed use of the help function in the python shell.

  • The Volume3DOpts.dithering property, and the --dithering command line option are now deprecated - a suitable dithering level is now automatically determined.

  • Removed some XNAT account credentials which were accidentally hard-coded.

0.16.0 (Tuesday October 31st 2017)

  • Removed the --skipupdatecheck command line option - the default behaviour is now not to check for updates on startup. This can be enabled via the new --updatecheck option.
