Dear All,
Today we are releasing OMERO 5.4.4, a bug-fix release which also introduces some new functionality.
It includes a security fix for 2017-SV6 Job-File Link<
https://www.openmicroscopy.org/security/advisories/2017-SV6-job-file-link/>. It is highly recommended that you upgrade your server.
Improvements include:
* images can now be filtered by Tag in the center panel of OMERO.web
* enabled search by “File” and “Tag” annotations separately in OMERO.web, as opposed to only being able to search by All annotations
* fixed switching between grid display and thumbnail display in OMERO.web
* fixed the image preview and disabled projection in OMERO.insight when trying to project an image with all the channels turned off
* fixed parsing of polygons and polyline ROIs so they can be opened in ImageJ
* fixed creation of OMERO pyramids for little-endian files
* improved error message when login fails for OMERO.insight
* improved handling of idle connections in OMERO.insight
* improved loading speed of LUT
* OMERO.insight and OMERO.importer are now compatible with Java 9
Sysadmin improvements include:
* improved installation documentation for OMERO.web, and OMERO.server on Debian 9, Ubuntu 16.04 and CentOS 7
* added an admin command and script to allow deletion of corrupted pyramids created by a bug introduced with OMERO 5.2 (new uncorrupted pyramids can then be generated - see Server Upgrade<
https://docs.openmicroscopy.org/omero/5.4.4/sysadmins/server-upgrade.html> for details)
* allowed enforcement of a secure connection when importing data
* added commands to the CLI sessions plugin to enable the creation and removal of user sessions
Developer updates include:
* improved test infrastructure and coverage
* allowed filtering by namespace (ns) in webclient, API and annotations
* added support for more rendering parameters to the API
* added the option to respect a specific tile size
* added a method to load planes using JavaGateway
* added an example to the documentation for using “sudo” to create sessions for others with the JavaGateway
* documentation is now compatible with Sphinx 1.7
This release does not upgrade the version of Bio-Formats which OMERO uses, which remains at 5.7.3.
