CHANGES IN VERSION 0.8.0 - Released 2025/03/07

NEW FEATURES

  • Issue #56: Port GUI to R shiny
    #56
    This update removes the dependence on gWidgetsRGtk2, RGtk2 and the
    GTK library, which has made installation on Mac and Windows
    impossible, and has mean that Retistruct could not be hosted on
    CRAN. Thanks to Jan Okul, who carried out this work as part of his
    undergraduate dissertation at the University of Edinburgh School of
    Informatics.

REGRESSIONS

  • Issue #33: Make marking up retinae easier by enabling pan and zoom
    #33
    Now that we have upgraded to Shiny, there may be better ways of
    achieving magnification and zooming of images

  • Issue #60: Highlight points when marking up retina
    #60
    In the move to Shiny we have lost the basic highlighting of points
    when marking up that used to work with identify(). We could
    reinstate the functionality in a basic way, but this involves
    redrawing the whole plot to highlight one point, which feels
    suboptimal. It may be that moving to Plotly or a method involving
    JavaScript would provide a better user experience.
