Dear gGui users and colleagues,
I am excited to announce the release of gGui v1.2!
gGui is a data-analysis package written atop the Glue Visualization Python library to visualize data from the GALEX Space Telescope's photon event archive, gPhoton.
I will be presenting gGui at the 235th American Astronomical Society conference in Honolulu, Hawai'i! We would love to chat with our users about anything gGui! Please visit us at Poster Session 109 (poster 14) on 2020 January 5th at 9:00AM HST! https://www.abstractsonline.com/pp8/#!/8993/presentation/3143
Notable changes
Version 1.2.0 includes improvements to many features of gGui:
-
The ggui_target_catalog is now cross-platform! gGui will automatically convert specified paths written on any OS into your native OS environment. This allows users to read target catalogs written by collaborators on a different OS, without any changes necessary to the gGui target catalog itself.
-
A quick demo mode has been introduced to gGui. To quickly download sample data we've prepared on our GitHub page, simply select "Load gGui Sample Data" under the "gGui Help" menu.
-
Plot options will automatically change as you click on a data product. This change deprecates the focus tool.
-
The gGui Target Manager now has configurable keyboard shortcuts! By default, the left and right arrows will advance targets for you! Users can configure these keyboard shortcuts in the :ref:
ggui_config -
gGui now supports high DPI desktops.
gGui is hosted on PyPI. To update gGui, simply invoke pip: pip install ggui --upgrade
Please report any bugs and feature requests to our GitHub page: https://github.com/gphoton-tools/ggui/issues
As always, thank you for supporting gGui!
