Editors & Viewers

The default editor for every type of data, which is the one used when double clicking on a variable, is preserved regardless the editors opened through the Open With menu.

The previous behaviour, which is to use the last opened editor as the default, can still be set, by means of a new preference in the Editors & Viewers category.

Recent open files

The size of the recently opened files list, which can be accessed through the File menu, is now configurable through preferences.

Quick Analysis

There is a new perspective in HIPE, which is accessible by clicking on the magnifying glass at the top right toolbar, for quickly inspecting scientific data from the Herschel Science Archive.

Observations can be searched by target name, observation id, operational day or Ra/Dec.

When clicking on an observation, its standalone browse products are opened in the editor area for quick analysis, by means of the image, spectra or cube viewers.

Opening the observation context instead is also possible, either with the popup menu or by configuring so as the default behaviour, in the Quick Analysis preferences category.

• • The JScanam ipipe script scanmap_JScanam_multiplePairs is designed to process multiple pairs of obsIDs and it is upgraded by introducing the scanamorphosAlignFrames Task. This Task aligns the Frames signal levels, belonging to every observation, to a common offset level, by exploiting the overlapping sky regions. This new capability is particulary useful to recover a common background level over observations that are partially or slightly overlapping.
