>> Crop to region or ROI:

>> - A crop button beside the panel zoom slider launches a crop dialog.
>> - The crop region can be manually chosen by dragging to select an area of the displayed image.
>> - Alternatively, existing Rectangular ROIs on the image will be loaded from OMERO and can be picked as a crop region.

>> Set dpi of panel images:

>> - On the 'Info' tab, you can set a minimum resolution for image panels when they are embedded

>> - The Info tab will then display the 'current' dpi in the figure alongside the export dpi.
>> - When the figure is exported as PDF, the resolution of these panels will be boosted if it is
>>   less than the chosen export dpi.
>> - Additional pixels will be created in the image and the data resampled using a bicubic filter. 
>> 
>> Export of figures as TIFFs:
>> 
>> - You can now choose to export the figure as a TIFF image at 300 dpi.
>> - This matches the submission format for many journals and allows easy embedding in presentations.
>> - Images are resampled using a bicubic filter to match the final figure dpi.
>> - Multi-page figures will be exported as multiple TIFFs in a zip file.
>> - A PDF info page is also included if your export is in a zip.
>> 
>> Export of panel images alongside figure:
>> 
>> - An additional export option allows the constituant images within a figure to be exported alongside
>>   the figure as TIFFs.
>> - For each image panel, the full sized TIFF of the image is exported, as well as the cropped and rotated TIFF
>>   that is embedded within the PDF or TIFF figure.
>> - If images are resampled to increase their dpi, they will be saved before and after resampling.
>> - This provides greater clarity as to the processing steps used in generating the figure and the TIFF images
>>   could also be used for creating figures in other applications.

>> Figure legend:
>> 
>> - Legends can be added to figures and will be included in the info PDF page when the figure is exported.
>> - You can use Markdown syntax to add simple formatting, such as bold and italics. Other formatting is
>>   supported in the web view, but may not be displayed properly in the exported PDF info page.
>> 
>> Other features:
>> 
>> - When multiple panels are selected, they can be automatically resized to "Align their Magnification" such

>> - Labels can be added to Scalebars to indicate their length.
>> - A color picker allows any color to be chosen for image channels and labels.
>> - Units support: If used with OMERO 5.1, the pixel size units in imported images will be used for scale bar labels.
>> - Unicode support: Figures can now contain special characters.
>> - Figure export errors are now handled with an error button which displays the error in a new browser tab.

>> Bug fixes:

>> - Fix label & scalebar colors in PDF figure export
