Today we are releasing Bio-Formats 5.2.3, a bug-fix release.
Improvements include fixes for three formats:
- CZI
- fixed imageCount for RGB images
- ICS writing
- fixed ordering of image dimensions
- DeltaVision
- fixed reading of large time dimensions
Other improvements:
- Command-line tools
- bftools.zip now includes the version history as NEWS.rst (thanks to Gerhard Burger)
- Code clean-up
- switched to String.indexOf(int) in GPL-licensed reader code so that a simpler library method can be used
- strings now extended with characters where possible
- completed deprecation of DataTools.sanitizeDouble()
- deprecated unused OSGi and ome-tools bundle build targets
- Documentation
- documented versioning policy
- clarified supported versions for Micro-Manager and Olympus ScanR files
- OME-XML changes:
- bumped schema version number to 2 (schema namespace left unchanged)
- added acquisition modes BrightField, SweptFieldConfocal and SPIM
- added parsing for Laser Scan Confocal and Swept Field Confocal
