Notable Changes in Igor Pro 9.03

  • Please see the Igor Pro 9.03 Beta 1 release announcement for additional changes compared to Igor Pro 9.02.

IGOR APPLICATION

CHANGED BEHAVIOR

  • SavePICT/SNAP can save a subwindow screen capture, and sets S_Name to the name of a picture saved to the Picture Gallery. If /O is not specified and as "<name of pict>" isn't specified, the picture is saved using a unique name of the form Pict0, Pict1, etc. Previously not specifying the as "<name of pict>" would always save (attempt to save) the picture as Pict0, which (without /O) would generate an error if Pict0 already existed.
  • File loading operations (XLLoadWave, SoundLoadWave, JCAMPLoadWave, MLLoadWave, and GBLoadWave) now preset the values of all or most output variables before execution. This means that V_Flag will be initialized to 0 even if the operation presents a file loading dialog and the user cancels the dialog. Previously, V_Flag would have been left unchanged from any previous value in this situation.  XLLoadWave clears S_value only when /J is specified.

BUG FIXES

  • When an if-endif statement calls a routine that executes Abort or AbortOnValue, Igor 9.03 no longer fails to completely abort command execution. Prior to this fix lines of code after the if-endif would execute.
  • Fixed a table bug introduced in 9.03 Beta 1. When typing in the text entry area, the first keystroke was often discarded.
  • Fixed display of wave names in the debugger when the names contained non-ASCII characters.
  • Fixed inability to move a free wave into a free data folder from a preemptive thread.
  • Fixed a bug in Gizmo surface top and bottom color alpha.
  • Fix for ImageRotate dialog with chunk inputs.
  • Fixed crash when killing a panel if one control has an action proc that runs in response to the kill event and which kills a different control.
  • Fixed uncommon crash introduced in 9.03 Beta 1 that could be triggered when a global wave was moved into a free data folder and then deleted.
