SANS Changes¶

New ¶

Support for shifting both monitor 4 and 5 on Zoom including a new setting in the ISIS SANS GUI. A new user file command has also been added to perform monitor shifts without changing the selected transmission spectrum.
New HFIRSANS2Wavelength algorithm to “convert” CG2 event files to histograms in wavelength.
New BIOSANS instrument definition file to accompany the data collection in event nexus new mode.
New CG2 definition file

Option in EQSANSCorrectFrame to correct TOF by path to individual pixel.
ApplyTransmissionCorrection now can be supplied any transmission workspace that is supported by Divide .

* The “visual noise” of the General and Q, Wavelength settings tabs has been reduced. *
Clicking on a cell in the table and typing will automatically start editing the cell without having to double click it.
Sample thickness is set when a user presses load or process selected, this resolves problems with a run not being found and having to re-enter each number individually.
Wavelength ranges such as 1,2,4,5 are now accepted. This example would convert into 1-2, 2-4, 4-5.
Open Mask File and Open Batch File will remember their previously selected files.
Open Mask File and Open Batch File will only show .txt and .csv files respectively by default.
The Check-boxes enabling extra table options, such as Sample Geometry have been moved alongside the table controls.
Multiple SANS Workflow Algorithms were converted into internal scripts. This removes the need for passing SANSState objects in unrolled histories. Additionally, it speeds up the reduction of each run by ~35%.

Fixed a bug where Mantid would crash when a user went to change their default save directory if no instrument was selected.
A bug causing large batch files (1000+ runs) to take minutes to load into the ISIS SANS GUI has been fixed. Large batch files will now load within seconds.
Processing data with a custom output name will append the same details to the final output workspace name as those without a custom name.
Workspace names and output files use the run number from the table, rather than the run number in the nxs file. If there is no run number it will continue to use the run number from the nxs file, but emit a warning.

These SANS Workflow algorithms have been removed from the list of executable algorithms as they are only required for internal use.
