Mantid 5.1.1 Release Notes

This is a patch release that corrects some significant issues since version 5.1.0.

The main changes are:

  • a bug in the Muon interface that lead the error reporter to repeatedly appearing when incrementing the run number with sequential fitting enabled has been fixed
  • a bug in the Muon interface that lead to error bars being lost on fitted data has been fixed
  • fixed a bug where import CaChannel would cause a hard crash within MantidWorkbench on Linux
  • updated the ISIS Reflectometry live data monitor to work with new instrument PV names
  • corrected the table value for a partially invalid, filtered log, with only one remaining entry
  • fixed a bug where Muon Analysis would crash when using default grouping with no runs
  • fixed an unhandled exception when marking columns in a table workspace for plotting or deleting rows from a PeaksWorkspace
  • updated ALC documentation to clarify instrument used for data loading
  • avoid error reporter on entering comma in scale box in MSlice
