Ginga v5.1.0

• Fixed an issue where --modules option did not start a global plugin automatically

• Improved error checking on contains_pts() method for canvas items

• Removed references to distutils module, deprecated in python 3.12

• Made menubar a plugin; this allows very flexible menu configuration for users implementing their own variations on the reference viewer; NOTE: if you don't see Ginga menus, delete your $HOME/.ginga/layout*

• Added default antialiasing to cairo renderer

• Fixed drawing of dimension labels for rectangles specified in WCS coordinates

• Fixed drawing of Crosshair canvas object in opengl backend

• Fixed drawing of XRange and YRange in non-data coordinates

• Refactoring of rendering primitives; simplifies renderer implementation

  • "Text" objects now have linewidth (default: 0), fill (default: True), fillcolor (default: None) and fillalpha (default: 1.0) attributes.
    Default behavior if fillcolor isn't specified is to default to the "color" attribute, thus preserving backward-compatible behavior.

• Fixed broken WCS compass in Pan plugin

• Fixed broken Close button in FBrowser and ColorMapPicker when activated as global plugins

• Fixed a bug in PixTable plugin where it would report a table for X and Y values outside the image

• Fixed bokeh back end to be up to date with recent bokeh changes
