Imviz

• Remove "From File.." option when running on an external server. [#3239]

Specviz2d

• Fix matched mouseover marker for 1d spectrum viewer when mouse is over 2d spectrum viewer. [#3203]

v4.0.0

4.0 (2024-10-17)

New Features

• Added ability to load remote data from a URI or URL. [#2875, #2923]

• Added flux/surface brightness translation and surface brightness
  unit conversion in Cubeviz and Specviz. [#2781, #2940, #3088, #3111, #3113, #3129,
  #3139, #3149, #3155, #3178, #3185, #3187, #3190, #3156, #3200, #3192, #3206, #3211, #3216, #3219]

• Plugin tray is now open by default. [#2892]

• New "About" plugin to show Jdaviz version info. [#2886]

• Descriptions are shown in the color mode dropdown for image layers to help describe the use-cases
  for Colormap vs Color. [#2894]

• The colormap menu for image layers now shows in-line previews of the colormaps. [#2900]

• Plugins can now expose in-UI API hints. [#3137, #3159]

• The standalone version of jdaviz now uses solara instead of voila, resulting in faster load times. [#2909]

• New configuration for ramp/Level 1 and rate image/Level 2 data products from Roman WFI and
  JWST [#3120, #3148, #3167, #3171, #3194]

• Unit columns are now visible by default in the results table in model fitting. [#3196]

Cubeviz

• Automatic spectral extraction now goes through the logic of the spectral extraction plugin for
  self-consistency. This results in several breaking changes to data-labels and get_data
  (the extracted spectra are now given dedicated data-labels instead of referring to them by
  the label of the flux cube) as well as to several plugins: model fitting, gaussian smooth,
  line analysis, and moment maps. [#2827]

• Background subtraction support within Spectral Extraction. [#2859]

• Aperture photometry plugin now listens to changes in display unit. [#3118]

Imviz

• Added a table with catalog search results. [#2915, #3101, #3099]

• "Imviz Line Profiles (XY)" plugin is renamed to "Image Profiles (XY)". [#3121]

• Added Gaia catalog to Catalog plugin. [#3090]

  Orientation plugin API to better match UI text. [#3128]

Specviz

• Fixed viz.app.get_subsets() for XOR mode. [#3124]

Specviz2d

• Add option to use self-derived spatial profile for Horne extract in spectral extraction plugin. [#2845]

API Changes

  Monochromatic will continue to work with a deprecation warning, but may be removed in a
  future release. [#2894]

• Plugin Table components now support row selection. [#2856]

Cubeviz

• get_data no longer supports function or spatial_subset as arguments. To access
  an extracted 1D spectrum, use the Spectral Extraction plugin or the automatic extraction of
  spatial subsets, and refer to the data-label assigned to the resulting 1D spectrum. [#2827]

• Several plugins that take 1D spectra replace spatial_subset with referring to the 1D
  spectrum in dataset. This affects: model fitting, gaussian smooth, line analysis,
  and moment maps. [#2827]

• Removed deprecated cubeviz.select_slice() method. Use cubeviz.select_wavelength()
  instead. [#2878]

• In the Slice plugin, the following deprecated properties were removed: wavelength (use value),
  wavelength_unit (use value_unit), show_wavelength (use show_value),
  slice (use value). [#2878]

• Spectral Extraction: renamed collapse_to_spectrum(...) to extract(...). [#2859]

• Generic FITS parsing now goes through specutils loaders first, if possible.
  If a specutils loader is used, uncertainty is converted to standard deviation type. [#3119]

• Custom Spectrum1D writer format jdaviz-cube is removed. Use wcs1d-fits from
  specutils instead. [#2094]

• Aperture Photometry plugin now uses TRFLSQFitter to fit radial profile because LevMarLSQFitter
  is no longer recommended by Astropy. [#3202]

Imviz

• Deprecated Rotate Canvas plugin was removed; use Orientation plugin instead. [#2878]

• Aperture Photometry plugin now uses TRFLSQFitter to fit radial profile because LevMarLSQFitter
  is no longer recommended by Astropy. [#3202]

Specviz

• In the Line Analysis plugin, deprecated width was removed (use continuum_width). [#2878]

Bug Fixes

• Markers table can now export to CSV but its columns had to be changed to accomodate this fix:
  world and pixel (previously containing SkyCoord and pixel location tuples, respectively) are now
  each two separate columns for world_ra/world_dec and pixel_x/pixel_y, respectively. [#3089]

• Stretch histogram in zoom limits no longer attempts unnecessary updates when zoom limits are changed. [#3151]

• Aperture Photometry plugin no longer allows negative counts conversion factor. [#3154]

• Fixed multiple select handling for batch mode aperture photometry in Cubeviz. [#3163]

Cubeviz

• Moment map plugin now reflects selected flux / surface brightness unit for moment zero. [#2877]

• Update the scale factor used to convert a spectrum between surface brightness and flux
  to use wavelength-dependent aperture area instead of the cone slice scale factor. [#2860]

• Handle display units when doing flux / surface brightness conversions. [#2910]

• Flux units are now correct for collapsed spectra when using the sum function
  when units are in per steradian. [#2873]

• Mouse over coordinates now responds to the selected surface brightness unit. [#2931]

• Fixed MaNGA cube loading. Uncertainty type is also handled properly now. [#3119]

• Fixed spectral axis value display in Markers plugin. Previously, it failed to display
  very small values, resulting in zeroes. [#3119]

• No longer incorrectly swap RA and Dec axes when loading Spectrum1D objects. [#3133]

• Fixed fitting a model to the entire cube when NaNs are present. [#3191]

Specviz2d

• Fixed Subset unit when it is created in 2D spectrum viewer. [#3201]

• Fix matched mouseover marker for 1d spectrum viewer when mouse is over 2d spectrum viewer. [#3203]

Other Changes and Additions

• Bump required specutils version to 1.18. Moment 0 calculation is now in units
  of flux*dx (rather than flux) [#3184]

v3.10.3

3.10.3 (2024-07-22)

  This feature requires WCS linking. [#2179, #2673, #2699, #2734, #2759]

• Add "Random" colormap for visualizing image segmentation maps. [#2671]

• Enabling any matched zoom tool in a viewer disables other matched zoom tools in other viewers

  and should be replaced with accessing/setting value directly. [#2706, #2715]

• Disabled exporting spectrum-viewer to PNG in Cubeviz; pending investigation/bugfix. [#2777]

Imviz

• Links Control plugin is now called Orientation. [#2179]

• Linking by WCS will now always generate a hidden reference data layer
  without distortion. As a result, when WCS linked, the first loaded data
  is no longer the reference data. Additionally, if data is distorted,
  its distortion will show when linked by WCS. If there is also data without WCS,
  it can no longer be displayed when WCS linked. [#2179]

  display label for the y axis in spectral viewer. Previously it was hard coded
  to always display flux density no matter the input unit. [#2703]

v3.8.2

Bug Fixes

• Fix app top-bar alignment in popouts and when embedded in websites. [#2648]

• Viewer data-menu is no-longer synced between different instances of the app to avoid recursion
  between click events. [#2670]

• Fix data-menu cutoff in smaller viewers, ensuring full visibility regardless of viewer dimensions. [#2630, #2707]

Cubeviz

• Fixes Spectral Extraction's assumptions of one data per viewer, and flux data only in
  flux-viewer/uncertainty data only in uncert-viewer. [#2646]

• Fixed a bug where cube model fitting could fail (endless spinner) if input cube
  has invalid 3D WCS. [#2685]

v3.8.1 Release Notes
