In using Analysis (2.1.5) and Format Converter fairly heavily over the past
couple of days, I've come across a relatively minor potential bug and couple
of possible improvements. Whether others agree with me on the improvements
is another matter.
The possible bug:
I had a project with 3 spectra open. I opened a few more spectra, set up
windows, and then tried to make contour files. The new spectra did not show
up in the pulldown in the create contour window until I saved, quit, and
reloaded the project. Not sure if this is recurring or a one off problem.
Feature/improvement requests:
1. If I have a 3D window with the same X and Y axes as a 2D spectrum, the 2D
spectrum and any associated peaks appear in the 3D window visible in every
plane (ex. 2D HH TOCSY in a 3D HHN window or 13C-1H HMQC in a 3D HCN window,
both with N as the Z axis). Is it possible to make the default behaviour to
keep 2D data out of 3D windows, or at least make it an option/user
preference? I adjusted things in the windows panel to turn 2D spectra off in
3D windows, but I get the impression it's still doing some background
display updates that slow things down when I change things in the 2D
spectra.
2. In FormatConverter, would it be possible to remember the last path used
in the open file dialog? In importing multiple files from the same
directory, I had to change from the starting directory every time. I realize
this is entirely a convenience issue.
3. Also in FC, when importing peaklists, it would be nice if FC could make a
semi-intelligent guess about which axis maps to what nucleus (DataDimRef). I
have HCN data that was collected with C and N effectively swapped and it
guesses wrong in all three dimensions. Again, it's easy enough to fix in the
pulldowns, but it should be easy enough to guess that a dimension with a
range from 8-78 ppm is probably 13C and not 1H.
The question:
I just saw that Apple released Xcode 4. Any idea how that will or won't
affect Analysis?
