nat 1.8.8
=========
* add xyzmatrix<-.neuronlist so that we can replace the vertices of a set of 
  objects in one go (#328)
* add as.mesh3d.ashape3d thereby adding support for 3D alpha surfaces generated 
  by the alphashape3d package (#337)

* add nvertices as generic method to find the number of vertices in an object 
  (#329)
* add plot3d.cmtkreg to visualise domain of CMTK registration (#333)
* speed up resample function (and seglist2swc) (#336)
* add an option to override default progress bar behaviour for nlapply (and many
  other functions that use it) (#322)

nat 1.8.7
=========
This release includes some bug fixes and significantly improved online package
documentation visible at http://jefferis.github.io/nat/ including two vignettes.

* Teach xform and friends to transform soma positions (#206)
* Copy attributes (including templatebrains) of neuronlists when subsetting (#310)
* Fix error in read.amiramesh for RLE encoded files. (#317)
  (reported by K. Hornik)
* replace nat::trim with base::trimws (#313)

nat 1.8.6
=========
* Add xform.data.frame method (#309)
* Add invert_reglist function (#308)
* Fix bug in imslice storing position of new singleton dim (#306)
* Fix namespace issues for smooth_neuron

nat 1.8.5
=========
The main feature of this release is improved support for nat+CMTK on Windows.

* teach voxdims.character to get voxel dimensions straight from image file on 
  disk enhancement (#303)
* teach coord2ind to accept nat.templatebrains objects for imdims (#302)
* add simple smooth_neuron function (#300)
* fix bug reading amira surfaces when Color precedes Id (#305)
* cmtk.reformatx needs to use system2 (#301)
* Don't use shell features on Windows (#295)

nat 1.8.4
=========
* fix  build failures with testthat >=0.12 (#293)
* ensure that nat still works with igraph <1.0 (#298)
* fix read.hxsurf failure when a region is not listed in the Parameters section (#291)
* Protect find.neuron from trying to filter with a neuronlist (#299)
* Fix simplification of reglist containing one cmtkreg (#297)
* Don't lose swap attribute when >1 cmtk registrations in reglist (#296)
* Documentation improvements for neurons and file formats

nat 1.8.3
=========
* nat now handles compound registrations via reglist objects (#286).
  These can contain homogeneous affine, CMTK registrations (in disk or in memory)
  and R functions (which can be used to wrap arbitrary registration types not 
  directly supported by nat). NB xformimage.reglist will currently only work for 
  CMTK compatible registrations.
* add mask(.im3d) function to zero out parts of an image (#285)
  Looks after im3d attributes and material name to integer pixel level mapping.
* add read.ngraph.swc which can be used to read even malformed SWC files (such
  as those containing cycles) (#282). 
  This is exposed by giving read.neuron an argument class, which can be set to 
  'ngraph' instead of 'neuron'.
  Inspired by https://github.com/BigNeuron/BigNeuron-Wiki/wiki/BigNeuron-Imperial-College-London-Hackathon-Discussion-Notes

* Fix invert option of subset/prune_vertices returns an error with igraph::dfs 
  points (#288)
* Fix fileformats(, rval='info') to return a well-formatted data.frame
* The idiom neuronlist[,] will never drop columns (since it is a useful shortcut
  for as.data.frame(neuronlist)) (#277)

nat 1.8.2
=========
* roll back rgl NULL mode changes from 1.8.0 in favour of less invasive approach
  of marking the majority of rgl based plotting examples as donttest (#274)

nat 1.8.1
=========
* fix non-canonical URLs to CRAN packages (thanks to Uwe Ligges)

nat 1.8.0
=========
This is tagged as a major release because of a change in behaviour that (by 
default) suppresses interactive rgl windows when running in batch 
(non-interactive) mode. See ?nat "rgl Package" section for details.

* nat will only activate an rgl display in interactive mode, otherwise 
  defaulting to rgl's NULL mode display. This should help run nat in batch mode
  situations including knitr runs, the CRAN build server etc. (#272)
* Add summary.neuron(list) functions to calculate tree statistics such as number
 of nodes and cable length for neurons/neuronlists (#269)
* Automate progress bar in nlapply - this will always show in interactive mode
  when there are more than 10 neurons being processed. (#271)
* Fix bug in c.neuronlist when combining more than 2 neuronlists (#270)
* Fix bug in read.neuronlistfh on Windows (#268)
* Fix bug when constructing an ngraph with a single node (#267)
* Fix bug in `[<-.neuronlist` when assigning a whole data.frame using (#256)

=========
* new function subset.neuron can keep/remove individual vertices from a neuron 
  based on internal variables such as position, width, vertex number etc while
  still producing a valid neuron with an appropriate graph structure (#261)
* this depends on a new low level function prune_vertices that can remove 
  specified vertices
* this has also enabled the prune.neuron method to be defined for the first time
  enabling pruning by spatial proximity ()
* teach mirror to work with image data (#265) and enable better handling of the 
  mirrorAxisSize by allowing this to be supplied as a bounding box (#254)
* teach as.im3d.matrix to use an im3d object to specify the desired space (#263)
  This enables for example a set or tracings to be turned into volume data that
  exactly matches a specific template brain.
* fix bug: seglengths fails for neurons with multiple trees bug (#257)
* fix bug: xformpoint.cmtkreg fails for in memory registration lists (#259)

nat 1.7.1

  order of points in a neuron and to remove lower order (terminal) branches.

  registrations in xform(image) (#199)

  xform/image/points (all 3 expect reg to be in sample to ref order and for any
  individual registration to be marked with swap=T if it is ref->sample)

* teach write.nrrd to handle more diverse inputs (including #242)

* plot.neuron can cope with some NA coordinates
* teach plot.neuron(list) to cope with NA points (#247)
* boundingbox has an na.rm argument (#246)
* teach droplevels.neuronlist to use extra arg (#249)

* fix handling of default colours in plot.neuronlist and plot3d.neuronlist (#230)

=========
* give mirror/xform.neuronlist subset arguments
* add plot3d.boundingbox

* dev: small doc fixes to make package CRAN compatible.

nat 0.8
=======
* important new feature: neuronlistfh objects backed by an on disk filehash
  allow single neurons to be loaded from disk on demand
* this allows 1) fast startup suitable for knitr documents and 2) working with
  more neurons than fit in main memory
* of course this is slower than working with an in-memory list but for plotting
  etc this should not be problem
* furthermore neuronlistfh objects can be subsetted/converted to give in memory
  neuronlist objects.

nat 0.7
=======
* implement read.neuron and read.neurons

* new xform generic + methods for clean transformation of objects including
  neurons and dotprops objects
* this includes improved interaction between dotprops and xform so that xform
  can use the previously value of k when recalculating a dotprops object post
  transformation
* sample data (40 PNs from Jefferis, Potter et al. '07 and 20 KCs from Chiang 
  et al. 2011)
* 1 use of .Internal and missing nlapply remain to be fixed.

* All functionality is self-contained (i.e. independent of nat.as/AnalysisSuite)
* passes check()
