41- Features
5===========
6    - New in Version 4.1.0
7      ------------------
8      This incremental release brings a series of new features and improvements,
9      and a host of bug fixes. Of particular note are:
10     
11      - Correlation Function Analysis (Corfunc)
12        This performs a correlation function analysis of one-dimensional SAXS/SANS data,
13        or generates a model-independent volume fraction profile from the SANS from an
14        adsorbed polymer/surfactant layer.
15
16        A correlation function may be interpreted in terms of an imaginary rod moving
17        through the structure of the material. Γ1D(R) is the probability that a rod of
18        length R moving through the material has equal electron/neutron scattering
19        length density at either end. Hence a frequently occurring spacing within a
20        structure manifests itself as a peak.
21
22        A volume fraction profile \Phi(z) describes how the density of polymer
23        segments/surfactant molecules varies with distance from an (assumed locally flat)
24        interface.
25
26      - Fitting of SESANS Data
27        Data from Spin-Echo SANS measurements can now be loaded and fitted. The data will
28        be plotted against the correct axes and models will automatically perform a Hankel
29        transform in order to calculate SESANS from a SANS model.
30
31      - Documentation
32        The documentation has undergone significant checking and updating.
33

154
155   - New in Version 3.1.2
156     --------------------
157     This release is a major stability improvement, having fixed a serious bug
158     that came to light since release 3.1.1. All users should upgrade.

174     --------------------
175     - Fixes bug #457 that prevented SasView from starting if the user was not
176       connected to the internet, or was behind a proxy server.
177
178   - New in Version 3.1.0
179     --------------------
180     - The documentation/help has had a complete overhaul including:
181       - A completely new presentation interface (Sphinx).
182       - Proof reading!
183       - Updating for latest features.
184       - A Help (or sometimes ?) button has been added to every panel, and some
185         sub panels if appropriate, linking to the appropriate section in the
186         documentation.
187       - The model help has been split so that the Details button now brings up
188         a very short pop-up giving the equation being used while HELP goes to
189         the section in the full documentation describing the model.
190       - Extensive help has also been added for the new optimizer engine (see
191         below) including rules of thumb on how and when to choose a given
192         optimizer and what the parameters do.
193     - The optimizer engine has been completely replaced. The new optimizer
194       still defaults to the standard Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. However 4
195       other optimizers are now also available. Each starts with a set of default
196       parameters which can be tuned. The DREAM optimizer takes the longest but
197       is the most powerful and yields rich information including full parameter
198       correlation and uncertainty plots. A results panel has been added to
199       accommodate this.
200       - The five new optimizers are:
201         - A Levenberg-Marquardt optimizer
202         - A Quasi-Newton BFGS optimizer
203         - A Nelder-Mead Simplex optimizer
204         - A Differential Evolution optimizer
205         - A Monte Carlo optimizer (DREAM)
206     - New models were added:
207         - MicelleSphCoreModel (currently residing in the Uncategorized category)
208     - Existing models were updated:
209         - LamellarPS (bug in polydispersity integration fixed)
210         - RectangularPrismModel
211         - RectangularHollowPrismModel
212         - RectangularHollowPrismInfThinWallsModel
213     - Infrastructure to allow SESANS data to be fit with models was added. This
214       will become available in a future release but can currently be used from
215       the command line with some caveats.
216     - A number of bugs were fixed including a thread crashing issue and an
217       incorrect slit smearing resolution calculation.
218     - Implemented much more robust error logging to enable much easier
219       debugging in general but particularly the debugging of issues reported by
220       SasView users.
221     - A number of infrastructure tasks under the hood to enhance maintainability
222     - Upgrade from Wx 2.8 to Wx 3.0.2 which allows several new features but
223       required significant additional rework as well.
224     - Fully implemented Sphinx to the build process to produce both better
225       user documentation and developer documentation.
226     - Restructuring of the code base to more unified nomenclature and structure
227       so that the source installation tree more closely matches the installer
228       version tree.
229     - Code cleanup (an ongoing task) .
230     - Migration of the repository to github simplifying contributions from
231       non-project personnel through pull requests.
232
233   - New in Version 3.0.0
234     --------------------
235     - The GUI look and feel has been refactored to be more familiar for
236       Windows users by using MDI frames. Graph windows are also now free-
237       floating.
238     - Five new models have been added: PringlesModel, CoreShellEllipsoidXTModel,
239       RectangularPrismModel, RectangularHollowPrismModel and
240       RectangularHollowPrismInfThinWallsModel.
241     - The data loader now supports ILL DAT data files and reads the full meta
242       information from canSAS file formats.
243     - Redefined convention for specifying angular parameters for anisotropic
244       models.
245     - A number of minor features have been added such as permitting a log
246       distribution of points when using a model to simulate data, and the
247       addition of a Kratky plot option to the linear plots.
248     - A number of bugs have also been fixed.
249     - Save Project and Save Analysis now work more reliably.
250     - BETA: Magnetic contrast supporting full polarization analysis has been
251       implemented for some spherical and cylindrical models.
252     - BETA: Two new tools have been added:
253       - A generic scattering calculator which takes an atomic, magnetic or
254         SLD distribution in space and generates the appropriate 2D
255         scattering pattern. In some cases the orientationally averaged
256         (powder) 1D scattering can also be computed. Supported formats
257         include: SLD or text, PDB, and OMF magnetic moment distribution
258         file.
259       - An image viewer/converter for data in image format; this reads in
260         an image file and will attempt to convert the image pixels to

301         calculation
302
303     - Fitting
304       - Includes a large number of model functions, both form factors and structure factors.
305       - Support P(Q)*S(Q) for form factors that flag they can be so multiplied.
306       - Supports Gaussian, lognormal, Shulz, rectangular and custom distribution
307         functions for models that need to include polydispersity or for orientational
308         distributions if appropriate.
309       - Anisotropic shapes and magnetic moment modeling in 2D allow for a non-uniform
310         distribution of orientations of a given axis leading to modeling and fitting
311         capabilities of non azimuthaly symmetric data.
312       - User can choose to weight fits or not. If using weights, the user can choose
313         the error bar on each point if provided in the file, the square root
314         of the intensity or the intensity itself.
315       - Instrumental resolution smearing of model or fits is provided with several
316         options: read the resolution/point fromt he file. Input a pinhole resolution
317         or a slit resolution.
318       - Users can define the Qrange (Qmin and Qmax) for both 1D and 2D data for
319         fitting and modeling, but not graphically.  The range can be reset to the
320         defaults (limits of q in data set for a fit) with the reset button.
321       - A mask can be applied to 2D calculation and fitting.
322       - Normalized residual plots are provided with every fit.
323       - Model function help available through detail button or from the fitting panel.
324       - Simultaneous/(advanced)constrained fitting allows for fitting a single
325         data set or several different sets simultaneously with the application
326         of advanced constraints relating fit parameters to functions of other
327         parameters (including from a different set). For example thickness of
328         shell = sin(30) times the length.
329       - Models that are the sum of two other models can be easily generated through the
330         SUM Model menubar item.
331       - New Python models can be added on the fly by creating an appropriate Python
332         file in the model plugin directory. Two tools are provided to help:
333         An easy to use custom model editor allows the quick generation of new Python
334         models by supplying only the parameters and their default value (box 1)
335         and the mathematical function of the model (box 2) and generating the
336         necessary *.py file.  A separate advanced model editor provides a full Python
337         file editor.  Either way once saved the model becomes immediately available
338         to the application.
339       - A batch fitting capability allows for the analysis of a series of data sets to
340         a single model and provides the results in a tabular form suitable for saving
341         or plotting the evolution of the fit parameters with error bars (from within
342         the application).

370         via plug-in mechanism which can easily allow other readers as appropriate.
371       - 2D data is expected in Q space but for historical reasons accepts the
372         NIST 2D raw pixel format and will do conversion internally.
373       - The full data and metadata available to SasView is viewable in ASCII via
374         right clicking on a data set and choosing Data Info in the DataExplorer
375         or on the plots

411                    Look in the 'For Developers' section and particularly the wiki at
412                www.sasview.org/trac/wiki.
413   *** Note 2:  If you have EXE or ZIP SasView installer, you won't need any of
414                the following.  However it is highly recommended that any
415                previous versions be un-installed prior to installing the
416                new version.
417
418   2.1- System Requirements
419        - Python version >= 2.5 and < 3.0 should be running on the system
420        - We currently use Python 2.7
421
422   2.2- Installing from source
423        - Get the source code
424          - to follow the current development version from source control use
425              git clone https://github.com/SasView/sasview.git
426              git clone https://github.com/bumps/bumps.git
427          - to install a specific version
428
429        - Build, install and run a specific release
430          - make sure the requirements below are already installed
431          - retrieve the source from https://github.com/SasView/sasview/releases
432          - open a command line window in the 'sasview-x.x.x' directory
433          - run 'python setup.py install'
434          - run 'python sasview.py' under the 'sasview' folder.
435
436        - Build, install and run the current development version
437          - clone the source from git; also clone bumps, which is developed in parallel
438              git clone https://github.com/SasView/sasview.git
439              git clone https://github.com/bumps/bumps.git
440          - open a command line window in the 'sasview' directory
441          - run 'python setup.py build'
442          - run 'python run.py'; this runs from the source directories, so you
443            don't have to rebuild every time you make a change, unless you are
444            changing the C++ model files
445
446        - The following modules are required (version numbers are what are used
447          in the windows release build):

4823- Known Issues
483===============
484
485
486   4.1- All systems:
487      The conversion to sasmodels infrastructure is ongoing and should be
488      completed in the next release. In the meantime this leads to a few known
489      issues:
490        - The way that orientation is defined is being refactored to address
491        long standing issues and comments.  In release 4.1 however only models
492        with symmetry (e.g. a=b) have been converted to the new definitions.
493        The rest (a <> b <> c - e.g. parellelepiped) maintain the same
494        definition as before and will be converted in 4.2.  Note that
495        orientational distribution also makes much more sense in the new
496        framework.  The documentation should indicate which definition is being
497        used for a given model.
498        - The infrastructure currently handles internal conversion of old style
499        models so that user created models in previous versions should continue
500        to work for now. At some point in the future such support will go away.
501        Everyone is encouraged to convert to the new structure which should be
502        relatively straight forward and provides a number of benefits.
503        - In that vein, the distributed models and those generated by the new
504        plugin model editor are in the new format, however those generated by
505        sum|multiply models are the old style sum|multiply models. This should
506        also disappear in the near future
507        - The on the fly discovery of plugin models and changes thereto behave
508        inconsistently.  If a change to a plugin model does not seem to
509        register, the Load Plugin Models (under fitting -> Plugin Model
510        Operations) can be used.  However, after calling Load Plugin Models, the
511        active plugin will no longer be loaded (even though the GUI looks like
512        it is) unless it is a sum|multiply model which works properly.  All
513        others will need to be recalled from the model dropdown menu to reload
514        the model into the calculation engine.  While it might be annoying it
515        does not appear to prevent SasView from working..
516        - The model code and documentation review is ongoing. At this time the
517        core shell parellelepiped is known to have the C shell effectively fixed
518        at 0 (noted in documentation) while the triaxial ellipsoid does not seem
519        to reproduce the limit of the oblate or prolate ellipsoid. If errors are
520        found and corrected, corrected versions will be uploaded to the
521        marketplace.
522   
523   3.1- All systems:
524        - The documentation window may take a few seconds to load the first time
525          it is called. Also, an internet connection is required before
526          equations will render properly. Until then they will show in their
527          original TeX format.
528        - If the documentation window remains stubbornly blank, try installing a
529          different browser and set that as your default browser. Issues have
530          been noted with Internet Explorer 11.
531        - Check for Updates may fail (with the status bar message ' Cannot
532          connect to the application server') if your internet connection uses
533          a proxy server. Tested resolutions for this are described on the
534          website FAQ.
535        - The copy and paste functions (^C, ^V) in the batch mode results grid
536          require two clicks: one to select the cell and a second to select the
537          contents of the cell.
538        - The tutorial has not yet been updated and is somewhat out of date
539        - Very old computers may struggle to run the 3.x and later releases
540        - Polydispersity on multiple parameters included in a simultaneous/
541          constrained fit will likely not be correct
542        - Constrained/simultaneous fit page does not have a stop button
543        - Constrained/simultaneous fit do not accept min/max limits
544        - Save project does not store the state of all the windows
545        - Loading projects can be very slow
546        - Save Project only works once a data set has been associated with
547          a model.  Error is reported on status bar.
548        - There is a numerical precision problem with the multishell model when
549          the iner radius gets large enough (ticket #288)
550        - The angular distribution angles are not clearly defined and may in
551          some cases lead to incorrect calculations(ticket #332)
552
553   3.2- Windows:
554        - If installed to same directory as old version without first removing
555          the old version, the old desktop icon will remain but point to the
556          new exe version. Likewise all the start menu folders and items will
557          have the old name even though pointing to the new version.  Usually
558          safest to uninstall old version prior to installing new version anyway.
559
560   3.3- MAC:
561        - Application normally starts up hidden. Click icon in Dock to view/use
562          application.
563        - Multiprocessing does not currently work on MAC OS
564
565   3.4- Linux:
566        - Not well tested
