napari 0.5.1

Thursday, Jul 25, 2024

We're happy to announce the release of napari 0.5.1!

napari is a fast, interactive, multi-dimensional image viewer for Python.
It's designed for exploring, annotating, and analyzing multi-dimensional
images. It's built on Qt (for the GUI), VisPy (for performant GPU-based
rendering), and the scientific Python stack (NumPy, SciPy, and friends).

For more information, examples, and documentation, please visit our website:
https://napari.org/

Highlights

napari 0.5.1 is a bugfix release hot on the heels of
napari 0.5.0. It fixes a critical bug with creating viewers
multiple times within a single IPython/Jupyter session
(#7106), as well as regressions
with viewing multiscale 3D time series
(#7103) and with converting image
layers to labels layers (#7095).

It also fixes a bug with NumPy 2 support
(#7104) and our storing of layer
axis info when using the channel_axis keyword argument for images
(#7089).

ago!

0.5.0

napari 0.5.0

Thursday, Jul 11, 2024

We're happy to announce the release of napari 0.5.0!
napari is a fast, interactive, multi-dimensional image viewer for Python.
It's designed for exploring, annotating, and analyzing multi-dimensional
images. It's built on Qt (for the GUI), VisPy (for performant GPU-based
rendering), and the scientific Python stack (NumPy, SciPy, and friends).

For more information, examples, and documentation, please visit our website:
https://napari.org/

Highlights

napari 0.5.0 is the beginning of an architectural overhaul of napari. The
architecture improvements, which are still ongoing, enable more responsive
asynchronous loading when slicing layers or panning and zooming in multiscale
2D layers (#5816). There's
several performance improvements, too, including faster points layer creation
and updates (#6727).

Other architectural changes, refactoring napari on top of
app-model, have enabled us to
(finally 😅) implement NAP-6, which allows
plugins to organize their commands in defined menus in the napari menubar
and application. Please read NAP-6 for all the
juicy details, including how to request more menus if the existing ones don't
meet your needs. 📋 (#7011)

Another important development for plugins is that we have added fields for
axis names and physical units in layers
(#6979). If you implement a
reader plugin, you can now specify the names of the axes in the data that you
are reading in, and the physical units of the scale and other transformations.
Currently, napari is not using this information, but we will in upcoming
versions, so plugins should start providing this information if they have it.

There's plenty of new features, too, including a polygon drawing tool when
painting labels (#5806),
pinch-to-zoom (#5859), better
ways to show/hide individual layers when exploring your data
(#5574)
(#5618), creating a layer from
an image or URL in your clipboard
(#6532),
a new way to export figure-quality renderings from the canvas
(#6730) (2D-only for now),
and the ability to copy and paste spatial metadata (scale, translate, etc)
between layers (#6864).

You'll also note a new little button on layer controls, including images:

:alt: transform layer icon
:width: 100px
:align: center

This little button allows you to resize and rotate layers, enabling manual
alignment (#6794)!

All in all, this release has over 20 new features and over 100 bug fixes and
improvements. Please see below for the full list of changes since 0.4.19.

New Features

• Add layer slicer base class for async slicing (#5170)
• Add unique_id attribute to Layer to uniquely identify layers (#5230)
• Feature: add layer contextual menu to hide not-selected layers (#5574)
• Feature: alt-click visibility eye to toggle show just that layer (hide others) (#5618)
• Feature: Add action to set current label to background (with keybinding) (#5672)
• Use Dims margin in layer slicing code (#5697)
• Changing brush size with mouse movement while holding specified modifiers (#5753)
• Feature: polygon drawing in the Labels layer (#5806)
• Replace old async loading with new approach (#5816)
• Enable pinch-to-zoom with vispy 0.13+ (#5859)
• Keep shading light for Surface fixed relative to camera (#5893)
• Use Request/Response pattern for Vectors layer (#5918)
• Lock dimensions / axes while rolling (#5986)
• Added support for features in surface layers (#6515)
• Add creating image from clipboard (#6532)
• Add viewer keybinds to select & show only next/prev layer and to toggle visibility of unselected (#6590)
• Show About napari action on macOS application menu (#6666)
• Add points/shapes highlight color setting to Appereance settings and preference page (#6689)
• Include features index as key in FormatStringEncoding (#6703)
• Better export of figure-quality renderings from the canvas (#6730)
• Add transform mode button for layers (#6794)
• Reset all dims to be rollable (#6797)
• implement copying spatial information via clipboard (#6864)
• Add axis_labels and units to layers and transforms (#6979)
• Alpha implementation of NAP-6 (#7011)

Improvements

• use app-model for file menu (#4865)
• Show platform specific shortcut while editing. (#5064)
• Add secondary keybindings to restore mnemonic (non-numeric) shortcuts in layers (#5155)
• Add loading layer UI indicator (#5342)
• Clean up layer slicer before integration with viewer (#5435)
• Thick Slices (Dims as nD-box instead of nD-point) (#5522)
• Add font-size to theme (#5607)
• Feature: Background color swapping for the Label layer (extends #5672) (#5744)

• [UI/UX] Updated polygon button icon for Shapes & Labels regular polygon tool (#7019)
• [Enh] Labels polygon tool: use a setting for completion_radius, by default double-click always works. (#7023)
• Add convenience input validation for Labels colormaps (#7025)
• Add empty menu placeholder actions using functional context keys from #6965 (#7038)
• [Shapes] for line tool, have _fixed_aspect (shift) enable 45 degree rotations if shift held first. (#7043)
• Add partial and weakref for empty shapes layer context key (#7064)
• Move IO_Utilities and Acquire submenus to their own group in the File menu (#7075)

Performance

• Do not copy label data when not necessary (#5542)
• Throttle mouse move event to fix high-polling-rate input (#5710)
• Speed up symbols v...

0.5.0b0

napari 0.5.0

⚠️ Note: these release notes are still in draft while 0.5.0 is in alpha/release
candidate testing. ⚠️

We're happy to announce the release of napari 0.5.0!
napari is a fast, interactive, multi-dimensional image viewer for Python.
It's designed for exploring, annotating, and analyzing multi-dimensional
images. It's built on top of Qt (for the GUI), VisPy (for performant GPU-based
rendering), and the scientific Python stack (NumPy, SciPy, and friends).

For more information, examples, and documentation, please visit our website:
https://napari.org/

Highlights

napari 0.5.0 is the beginning of an architectural overhaul of napari. The
architecture improvements, which are still ongoing, enable more responsive
asynchronous loading when slicing layers or panning and zooming in multiscale
2D layers (#5816). There's
several performance improvements, too, including faster points layer creation
and updates (#6727).

Other architectural changes, refactoring napari on top of
app-model, have enabled us to
(finally 😅) implement NAP-6, which allows
plugins to organize their commands in defined menus in the napari menubar
and application. Please read NAP-6 for all the
juicy details, including how to request more menus if the existing ones don't
meet your needs. 📋 (#7011)

Another important development for plugins is that we have added fields for
axis names and physical units in layers
(#6979). If you implement a
reader plugin, you can now specify the names of the axes in the data that you
are reading in, and the physical units of the scale and other transformations.
Currently, napari is not using this information, but we will in upcoming
versions, so plugins should start providing this information if they have it.

There's plenty of new features, too, including a polygon drawing tool when
painting labels (#5806),
pinch-to-zoom (#5859), better
ways to show/hide individual layers when exploring your data
(#5574)
(#5618), creating a layer from
an image or URL in your clipboard
(#6532),
a new way to export figure-quality renderings from the canvas
(#6730) (2D-only for now),
and the ability to copy and paste spatial metadata (scale, translate, etc)
between layers (#6864).

You'll also note a new little button on layer controls, including images:

:alt: transform layer icon
:width: 150px
:align: center

This little button allows you to resize and rotate layers, enabling manual
alignment (#6794)!

All in all, this release has over 20 new features and over 100 bug fixes and
improvements. Please see below for the full list of changes since 0.4.19.
