Mantid 6.9.1 Release Notes#

This is a patch release that corrects some significant issues since version 6.9.0.

The changes are:

  • A fix to stop workbench freezing when plotting data from a workspace which is changing (e.g plotting live data)

  • Removed slit lookup that was specific to OFFSPEC in ReflectometryReductionOneLiveData v1 as it is no longer required and was causing regular crashes when running live data on OFFSPEC.

  • Fixed a bug in Elwin Tab of Data Manipulation Interface where changing integration range with the sliders did not change default integration range.

  • Add sample log values to the live data workspace before the instrument is loaded in ReflectometryReductionOneLiveData v1 to ensure log values are available when setting the detector positions.

  • Fixed a crash when using multiple Indirect or Inelastic interfaces. This crash was present on the Bayes Fitting interface, but could also be replicated elsewhere.
