[ome-users] Release of FLIMfit 5.0.3

[Munro, Ian]

Dear all,

We are pleased to announce the release of FLIMfit 5.0.3, available for download at http://flimfit.org/downloads/latest.
Please note that we have updated to Matlab Runtime 2016b, Mac users will need to install the new runtime, available from the downloads page
and that this version of FLIMfit is compatible with OMERO 5.2 servers.

A guide to using FLIMfit to analyse multiphoton FLIM data with tutorial videos is available in a recent paper,Conway, JRW, Warren, SC & Timpson, P, Methods (2017)<https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ymeth.2017.04.014>


New features
•         New segmentation manager with new freehand tool options and improved performance.
•         Ability to estimate IRF from a mono-exponential reference using an exponentially modified gaussian model. This can produce a high quality IRF for TCSPC detectors without secondary peaks or significant afterpulsing.
•         Add support for Picoquant HydraHarp and TimeHarp data files.
•         Add support for data acquired during bidirectional scan.
•         Where possible determine repetition rate from data (currently ptu/pt3 files).
Performance Enhancements
•         Significantly improved loading times for some data formats.
•         Added option to display smoothed data in the decay tab. When off, this significantly reduces the time to switch between datasets.
•         This option does not affect smoothing during data fitting.
•         Improved performance selecting/deselecting images to fit.
•         Update to Bioformats 5.4.
Other Enhancements
•         Add option to plot weighted or unweighted values in plotter.
•         Visual enhacements to plotter.
•         Enable plotting by image number.
•         Allow setting default Gate Max value.
•         Improved support for older MacOS X versions (10.9.x).
Bug fixes
•         Allow t0 shift map estimation from any loaded dataset (rather than first only)
•         Fix crash when fitting t0 and offset locally
