New Bio7 1.7.1 Release with Improved R Plot Image Display

05.09.2013

I released a new Windows version of Bio7. This release improves the general R plot functionality of Bio7. The default image plots are now displayed in a Image stack if more than one plot command is executed. In this way all plots are automatically openend and not only the last image plot. Multiple plots (e.g. an animation or simulation) can then be saved as an animated *.gif file (see example below) or an *.avi file, etc. with the available default ImageJ methods.

Furthermore i added some templates in the preferences to switch e.g. to a *.pdf (displaying multiple plots) or *.svg plot (displaying a single plot) which will be opened with the default registered software if available – for *.svg i recommend Inkscape).
For antialiased image plots i added an “Image Cairo” option.
