New features
Some algorithms (like image statistics calculations) were
reworked to fully utilize multi-core CPUs or modern PCs. It is
almost impossible to buy a PC with single-core CPU these days and
even the cheapest netbooks are equipped with dual core processors.
Number of fully parallelized algorithms in SPIS will increase over
time. Parallelization in SIPS is not limited to certain number of
cores—if the CPU offers six, eight or more
cores, parallel algorithms are designed to use all of them.
SIPS v2.0.1. allows dragging of image selection frame larger
than the visible portion of the image. If the user scrolled the
image and tried to continue in dragging of the selection
rectangle, new mouse button press canceled the current selection
rectangle and started new selection from the mose cursor position.
New SIPS version allows to continue selection if the mouse button
is pressed in any of four corners of the currently selected
rectangle. Mouse cursor is altered to indicate the current
selection rectangle will not be erased, but selection will
continue.
Bug fixes
SIPS v2.0.1 fixes problems, found in the previous
versions of the software.
Image set windows cannot be minimized if images ate
displayed in individual tabs. Minimized image set windows
descended below the tabbed images and become
unaccessible.
Fixed problem when new image downloaded from camera,
trying to overwrite currently selected image, arrived after the
user chose to close the particular image and SIPS opened the
message box asking whether the particular image should be saved
before closing.
Fixed problems when the user closed the CCD Camera tool
window while the image was just downloaded from the
camera.
Clicking of Full Frame command button in the
Frame tab of CCD Camera tool reset the binning count
boxes to 1, but the full resolution was kept to values
corresponding to selected binning.
If some transformations were applied to newly downloaded
image (defined in New Image Transform tool), selected
sub-frame remained related to the image before these
transformations, which did not correspond to the image displayed
in the Frame tab.
SIPS v2.0.1 is a freeware and can be downloaded from the download section of this WWW site.
