Use of localization sensor and orientation +data for static hydrophones had a bug whereby it would continually ‘forget’ +angle offsets applied to static hydrophones in viewer mode. This is now fixed.
+ +Click tool bar: Correctly shows event +selection options even if no species classification options are in place.
+ +Fixed Landmarks: Earlier versions were +‘losing’ these every time PAMGuard started or new data were loaded in viewer +mode. Now fixed.
+ +ROCCA: Fixed (another) memory leak which +caused PAMGuard to crash when processing large data sets with the ROCCA classifier. +
+ +Ishmael Modules: Fixed bug which +occasionally caused crashes when processing many files offline.
+ +PAMDog: Fixed bug in watchdog program which +was trying to start PAMGuard before modules were fully loaded. The watchdog now +correctly waits until modules are loaded before attempting to start PAMGuard +processing.
+ +New sound type for simulated sounds which +generates random chirps between around 200 and 800Hz, roughly the frequency +you’d expect sound from higher frequency baleen whales, such as humpbacks, to +vocalise at.
+ +Hiding tool tips. A menu item to +permanently turn off all tool tips, or tap the ‘Esc’ key to turn them off for 6 +seconds if they are getting in the way, particularly when trying to interact +with displays using the mouse.
