Next: Release Notes V0.14-5
Up: KAPPA Kernel Application Package
Previous: New applications
No new applications or facilities have been introduced or changed, but
the following bugs have been fixed:
- ARDMASK now sets the bad pixel flag in the output NDF so that
other applications interpret the selected pixels as bad.
- COMPAVE now traps zero variance values, preventing a divide by
zero error.
- CONTOUR no longer draws contours in the background colour if the
requested contour colour is not available on the selected device.
This previously could cause contours to be invisible when using a
monochrome PostScript device.
- CONTOUR no longer core dumps if an abort (!!) is given for
Parameter PERCENTILES.
- History information written to NDFs now contain the up-to-date
KAPPA package version number.
- DISPLAY now uses independent compression factors for both axes.
Previously, an inappropriate compression factor could be used for
one of the axes if the lengths of the two axes were very different.
Also, the default value for MARGIN used when annotated axes are
produced, has been changed from 0.16 to 0.2 in order to avoid
clipping of labels on certain devices.
- Trailing spaces are now stripped from the Title attribute of the
current WCS Frame.
- A bug in MATHS which could cause zero variances to be produced sometimes
when using double precision data has been fixed.
- NOMAGIC and FILLBAD now
set the bad-bits flag in the output NDF to
zero. Previously, NDFs containing QUALITY arrays could still seems
to contain bad pixels after running NOMAGIC or FILLBAD. This no
longer happens.
- WCSREMOVE now issues a warning instead of aborting if an attempt is
made to remove the Base Frame of the WCS FrameSet.
- NATIVE now correctly replaces IEEE NaN and Inf values by Starlink bad
values on Solaris systems.
- The global Parameter POSITIONS_LIST has been replaced by CATALOGUE.
