Change log

1.1.2 (16-Dec-2004)

  • 390: Axima CFR – values above precursor were incorrect for psd
  • 394: Could not process QTrap file containing neutral loss scan
  • 395, 438: Fix error when processing Analyst wiff file that reported "Unable to fit spectrum data – scan is probably corrupt"
  • 404, 405: Add support for Shimadzu LCMSSolution LCMS-IT-TOF
  • 413: Ignore non-MS functions in Masslynx, e.g. UV trace
  • 415: Could not open Analyst Wiff file that contained just a single MS/MS scan, no survey or TIC
  • 416: Access to Analyst Wiff files on remote drives requires call to CoInitialiseSecurity
  • 418: Fix problem with Esquire data – aggregation of LC-MS/MS failed if first scan was MS2 followed by MS1
  • 419: Fix error when processing Analyst wiff file that reported "The experiment type is not supported for processing"
  • 422: Analyst file header: data type for DilutFactor different in QS and 1.3
  • 427: Add support for Analyst QS 1.1
  • 435: Change Axima QIT Options
  • 437: Fix problems that broke interface to MassLynx 4.0 SP3 and higher

1.1.1 (7-Jun-2004)

  • 364: Will attempt to obtain precursor information from *.t2d files when Voyager 4.3 or later is present
  • 365: Fixed mass scale issues for next generation of QSTAR instruments – requires Analyst SP8 or later
  • 372: If there was significant intensity at the very end of scan this could result in "#IND" values in the peak list
  • 381: Added support for "SIM" type zoom scans in Xcalibur files
  • 385: When parsing a text file, if unexpected data is encountered and no preceding valid data was found, then treat this as an error

1.1.0 (13-Dec-2003)

  • 239: Fix localisation problems in Mass Deltas tab of Preferences dialog
  • 241: Fix localisation problems in View; Range dialog
  • 245: New View menu item to lock displayed mass range when moving between scans
  • 246: Fixed problems with opening file in BioTools and Distiller at the same time
  • 268: The last line of a text data file could be ignored. If the data were centroided, they might all be ignored if there were less than five peaks.
  • 270: Made text file parsing more robust, particularly where extra values appear on the end of a line.
  • 280: Fix problem with time axis when TIC zoomed in to very narrow range
  • 281: Saving files in DTA format now saves a separate file for each spectrum
  • 283: Peak list window could be hidden when changing main window size (Z order problem)
  • 284: Crash when multiple rows of peak list window copied to clipboard
  • 289: Update help to cover Masslynx 4.0
  • 293: More frequent screen refreshes when saving large peak lists
  • 295, 296: Fix problem opening Xcalibur files that have missing scan type in scan filter
  • 297: Save peak list sub menu was taking a long time to display for very large peak lists
  • 299: Deleted peaks were still output when a peak list was saved
  • 300: Dataset Info Window was describing Masslynx files as Xcalibur
  • 304: Fixed problem with Analyst QS file produced from a QSTAR XL instrument ("calib_t0 < 0")
  • 307: Put check in code that apartment threading option is set correctly for Analyst QS
  • 308, 327, 342, 353: Add support for Kratos Axima
  • 311, 338, 339: Add code to check for updates on www.matrixscience.com automatically
  • 319: Could get message "Tolerance range exceeded" if the difference between the precursor m/z of two scans was exactly the same as the precursor tolerance value.
  • 332: Introduced piece-wise calculation of S/N ratio because of spectra with very intense noise bursts in one place, (e.g. when laser fires)
  • 337: Allow spectra to have non-monotonic mass scales (due to extrapolated polynomial calibration)
  • 345: Fixed bugs in Dataset Explorer actions to expand all and collapse all
  • 346: Better handling of corrupt Masslynx scans
  • 349: Processing Options dialog did not display correctly with Japanese character set
  • 352: Some drop down boxes in the processing options sheets allowed editing.
  • 358: Xcalibur 1.4 FTMS data should be treated as compressed non-linear
  • 359, 360: Interim support for *.t2d files from Applied Biosystems 4700 (TOF/TOF)
