Mantid Workbench Changes#

New Features#

  • Mantid on Linux has moved from Qt5 to Qt6.

  • The sample logs viewer allows copying the selected variable name to clipboard

Bugfixes#

  • The File ‣ Save Project as… dialog now correctly skips an unmodified EventWorkspace when monitors are loaded and Save Altered Workspaces Only is selected without resulting in mantid crashing.

InstrumentViewer#

New features#

  • In the new Instrument View, added an option to draw the sample position, and labelled the Monitors and Sample checkboxes with a coloured circle to indicate the colour of the drawn items.

  • New Instrument View now allows for both rectangle zoom and scroll wheel zoom.

  • Sped up new Instrument View by creating the component tree lazily, i.e. only when a component in the tree is expanded. This will give a speed-up of a few seconds for large instruments.

  • In the new Instrument View, when drawing the sample position, if there is a sample shape defined, then that shape will be drawn instead of a simple point.

Bugfixes#

  • In the new Instrument View, fixed a bug when overlaying a peaks workspace with more peaks than the number of detectors in the instrument. This could happen if viewing e.g. the result of ExtractSpectra.

  • In the new Instrument View, fixed a bug with drawing workspaces where some detectors are not assigned to any spectra.

  • New Instrument View now has correct peak lines in lineplot when the units are changed and/or the spectra in the lineplot are summed.

SliceViewer#

New features#

Bugfixes#

  • Fixed an issue of SliceViewer not showing data in non-orthogonal view when L is selected as one of the project axes by setting proper limits for the axes.
