Framework Changes¶

Algorithms ¶

RemovePromptPulse now has options to specify the time range of the data. This can speed up workflows which already know the data range such as AlignAndFocusPowder.
ConvertDiffCal and CalculateDIFC now have the option to specify Offset Mode, by selecting Signed you can calculate the offset for logarithmically binned data.
Rebin now has an optional parameter to explicitly set binning mode (linear/log/reverse log/power) regardless of binwidth sign or other properties set. This can enforce a particular binning type, reducing inadvertent errors from errant binning mode specifications.
New ouput property OutputScalingWorkspace in algorithm Stitch1D generates a WorkspaceSingleValue containing the scale factor and its error. No workspace creation if left empty.
New algorithm GenerateGoniometerIndependentBackground extract the background from a dataset where sample is rotated through multiple positions.

Fixed bug in UnGroupWorkspace where the algorithm history would not be added to the workspaces being ungrouped.
ExtractSpectra no longer sorts events when doing x-range trimming. The algorithm that extracts the events does not require it. This will likely move execution time of workflows from ExtractSpectra to elsewhere, but the overall execution may be reduced.
Fix for the LoadEMU and LoadPLN loader to capture all the environment parameters in the datafile.
MaskBTP can now mask BIOSANS data containing the midrange detector.
The progress bar for LoadMD now includes loading experiment information.

An inconsistency in the E units when compared to Tau has been fixed in the documentation for the StretchedExpFT function.

GenerateGroupingPowder was edited to allow for optional saving as a nexus file, and for different labeling methods. To save as nexus file, set the property FileFormat to either nxs or nx5. To distinguish left/right sides of instrument, set the property AzimuthalStep to a number other than 360. To label groups in order, as opposed to by their angular position, set the property NumberByAngle to false.

Fixed bug in mantid.kernel.LogFilter usage case from the tutorial site
Fixed bug in TimeSplitter where workspace rows with zero-length time were corrupting the time intervals map.
Fixed bug in TimeSplitter.addROI() when the ROI starts at the beginning of the TimeSplitter object.
It is now possible to use the archive on macOS once it has been mounted. Follow the archive mounting instructions here: https://developer.mantidproject.org/GettingStarted/GettingStarted.html#osx

Upgraded to Python 3.10.
SNSPowderReduction, can now perform linear interpolation for temperature of two empty container background runs using new InterpolateBackground algorithm.
New algorithm available, InterpolateBackground, used to perform linear interpolation for temperature of two background runs.
Drop support for numpy v1.21 because it’s no longer maintained.
Added a new documentation page on how to extend Mantid with a pip install.
