v0.9.3

[rafalkowalewski1]

Picasso 0.9.3 is here

Changelog

Important updates:

• All GUI modules show the explanations of parameters when hovering over them with the mouse cursor (tool tips)
• FRC: does not blur rendered localizations, enabled saving rendered images
• Automatic testing at pull requests extended to most Picasso functions

Small improvements:

• General improvements in the GUI widget names displayed (for example, change "Scalebar" to "Scale bar")
• Render: many input variables were switched from cam. pixels to nm in the GUI, for example, min. blur in the display settings dialog
• Render: slicer dialog automatically slices/unslices localizations when opening/closing the dialog
• Clustering algorithms copy the input localizations to avoid modifying the input DataFrame (for example, when using Picasso as a package)
• MLE Gauss fitting: default method is now sigmaxy, i.e., sigma can vary between x and y, like in the least-squares fitting
• Upgrade PyPI release action to release/v1 (security reasons)

Bug fixes:

• Average: fix pandas warnings
• Localize: picasso.localize.identify accepts roi as input argument
• Render: show histogram in mask dialog ignores zero values
• Render: qPAINT histograms in the info dialog fixed and improved
• Fixed picasso.postprocess.compute_local_density

Notes

‼️ If installed in Program Files, Render and Localize may not be available for non-administrator users. Therefore, we recommend installing Picasso outside of Program Files. The current default location is C:\Picasso.
⚠️ Windows Safety features and Windows Defender may ask multiple times for permission during the installation and download.
