Mantid Workbench Changes

New Features

  • Updated selection method to ExtendedSelection when adding workspaces to the sequential fit dialog.

  • Updated compiler on macOS from clang version 15 to 16, which should result in performance improvements.

  • Added a new Deprecation Policy for Mantid.

  • Added tooltips to the run and abort buttons, displaying their functionality and shortcut keys. Tooltips are displayed when hovering over the relevant buttons.

  • Force Style for QComboBoxes and text, in order to make text visible on OSX dark mode

  • expose ConfigService::remove() to python API

  • Clarified Report Usage Data checkbox on the Workbench About page to explain that usage reporting is required to use the Error Reporter.

Bugfixes

  • Fixed a bug where right-clicking a 3D plot to change the colour bar scale could toggle the zoom tool.

  • Fixed error when plotting a histogram of live data.

  • Legend in plots is no longer accidentally picked up by a mouse scroll

  • Fixed issue with dragging text onto the plot: Previously, dragging invalid text onto the plot resulted in unexpected behavior Now, when invalid text is dragged onto the plot, a warning is displayed to the user indicating that the workspace is invalid.

  • Fixed key shortcuts k and l in mantid plot for quickly switching between linear and log scales.

  • Fixed error that appered when editing the y-axis of plots generated in a python script within Workbench

  • Fixed error when cropping a workspace after using the Plot All button

  • Fixed bug where the TOF converter window was not displaying properly on high resolution screens.

  • Disabled the broken Linear/Log context menu when right clicking on the colour bar of a 3D surface plot. The menu is now only accessible by right clicking inside the plot axes, which is consistent with other types of plotting (colorfill and contour).

  • Fixed a bug where editing plot settings could reorder the line order.

  • Fixed drawing artifacts appearing (in some cases) when zooming in on the Instrument View with a 2D projection
