Version 1.6

Version 1.6.5, 01 Sep 2015

    • Maximum viewport width increased to 30 seconds, for viewing longer spans in data files recorded in Continuous mode, or from longer trials. Testing indicated no significant performance impact under OS X Yosemite on a 2012 IMac.


Version 1.6.4, 24 Jun 2015

  • Added a distribution package targeting Oracle's Java Runtime Environment (major version 7 and beyond) in addition to the one targeting Apple's now-deprecated JRE (development ceased with Java 6). While JMWork remains code-compatible with a Java 6 JRE, this guide now recommends using the "latest and greatest" version of the JRE.

  • The About dialog now indicates the version number of the JRE under which JMWork is running.


Version 1.6.3, 08 Dec 2014

Target summary information updated for an RMVideo "Random-Dot Patch" target to reflect the new "two-color contrast mode" feature introduced in Maestro V3.1.2.


Version 1.6.2, 08 Oct 2013

    • Bug fixed: The trial flags in CXFILEDHR.dwTrialFlags were not parsed correctly, so the information listed for the parameter "Trial Flags" in the Info panel was incorrect. Applicable only to data file version >= 16.

    • Modified to check for new trial flag bits related to the new "chained" trial sequencer mode, introduced in Maestro V3.1.0. If a trial participated in a chained sequence and marked the start of a chain of successfully completed trials, then the "Trial Flags" parameter will include the string "chain START"; if it participated in a chained sequence but was not the first trial in a successful chain, the string "chained" appears instead.


Version 1.6.1, 30 Sep 2013

    • Bug fixed: The File|Refresh Data Directory command had no effect for a data directory that had not yet been cached in the JMWork user's home directory. Thus, you could not refresh the contents of a new data directory that you were actively populating with Maestro data files during an ongoing experiment.

    • Improved character input handling in numeric-only text fields.


Version 1.6.0, 06 Sep 2013

    • Added support for 50 distinct "sorted-spike train" data channels. This required no change to the Maestro data file format and had no effect on Maestro itself. We merely dedicated new record tag IDs for the 37 additional sorted-spike channels.

    • Added two new hot keys: Ctrl-W and Alt-W both raise a modal dialog by which the user selects the channel number for one of the 50 sorted-spike train data channels. Ctrl-W writes the accepted spike times from the spike sorter's current output to the channel selected, while Alt-W writes the spike times in DI<0> to that channel.
