You can now put this code in a script and set its path in the new `startup script` setting ([#8188](https://github.com/napari/napari/pull/8188)), and it will be executed every time napari opens. It's just a python script, so sky's the limit :) We found it particularly useful for adding custom colormaps, setting up the scale bar *just right*, or automatically launching our favourite plugin on startup. -TODO: image here - -### Multilayer features table widget -If you have multiple layers with similar feature tables (such as points or shapes annotations from different processing pipelines), you may want to easily compare these features between different layers. Following up on the recent addition of the [Features Table Widget](features-table-widget), you can now select multiple layers while the widget is active, and their features tables will be automatically joined into a single table ([#8189](https://github.com/napari/napari/pull/8189))! - -TODO: image here +![Screenshot of the application settings menu highlighting the field for the startup script path](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7b0e5e5c-252b-45a0-ae76-aac88e488cbc) ### Automatically tiled overlays and ColorBar overlay -Canvas overlays such as `scale_bar`, `text_overlay`, and `color_bar` overlay are now automatically tiling ([#7836](https://github.com/napari/napari/pull/7836)), preventing annoying overlap and making them easier to use without having to manage positioning. Wait, `color_bar` overlay you said? You heard it right! This is a new overlay ([#7832](https://github.com/napari/napari/pull/7832))that shows a color bar legend, and it works with any layer which uses a colormap. All of this works seamlessly with multiple overlays and even grid mode: +Canvas overlays such as `scale_bar`, `text_overlay`, and `colorbar` overlay are now automatically tiling ([#7836](https://github.com/napari/napari/pull/7836)), preventing annoying overlap and making them easier to use without having to manage positioning.
