What's new in AstroImageJ 3.0.0

• Changes:
• Multi_Plot(MP):
• New Transit light curve fitting facility which can fit simultaneously with detrending
• Select multiple curves for simultaneous shifting using CONTROL and SHIFT clicks in the shift value box
• Set the spinner step size for multiple curves using the ABOVE and BELOW options in the ‘Set Stepsize’ panel
• No longer need to enable “Auto Error” to save a new error column as part of “New Column” creation
• Auto legend and custom legend can now be displayed at the same time (the custom legend is appended to the auto legend if both are enabled)
• Added option in file menu to reset all AIJ preferences settings to default values
• Added Fit panel screen grab save option to ‘save all’
• Added ‘Save data subset’ option to ‘save all’
• Fixed error when dragging and dropping measurements table file when no associated plotcfg file is available
• Image Display:
• Fixed image “stretching” display problem characteristic of OSX 10.10 (Yosemite)
• Fixed reversed characters in vertical plate scale display characteristic of OSX 10.10 (Yosemite)
• Fixed problem with “Save image as PNG and JPG for OSX 10.10 (Yosemite)
• Added “Combine stack slices into single image” option to Image->Process menu (same as Toolbar->Image->Stacks->Z Project)
• Fixed an issue that caused left and right arrow keys to not step though the stack after clicking tool icons above image. Keyboard focus is now returned to the image canvas after clicking an image toolbar icon.
• When the center-click option is enabled to center the clicked point in the image display, the mouse pointer now moves to the center as well to enable proper zooming
• Added option in file menu to reset all AIJ preferences settings to default values
• Multi-Aperture (MA):
• Dark current should now be specified in Set_Aperture in units of [e-/pix/sec] (was previously in [e-/pix/exposure]). The value will now be multiplied by the exposure time (if available in FITS header).
• Fixed bug that caused sexagesimal FITS header values to be incorrectly converted when copying value to MeasurementsTable
• Fixed bug that caused null pointer exception if “Use previous N apertures” was selected and no apertures were stored
• Set_Aperture (SA):
• Dark current should now be specified in units of [e-/pix/sec] (was previously in [e-/pix/exposure]).
• Stack_Aligner (SA):
• Fixed bug that caused alignment by WCS headers to fail if the FITS header contained the EPOCH keyword with a value other than 2000.0
• Fixed single-step mode
• Astrometry:
• Added support for virtual stacks when “auto save” is not enabled. In this mode, the images with WCS headers will be saved to a subfolder named /wcs
• Increased timeout waiting for job to set up on nova server from 10 seconds to 20 seconds to increase reliability of connection to the nova.astrometry.net server
• FITS_Reader:
• Fixed a bug introduced in AIJ that caused 3D FITS images to not open as a stack
