SLiCAP Version 3.2 release notes

../_images/colorCode.svg
  1. SLiCAP Version 3.2 is compatible with previous versions. The use of the instruction object for creating instructions, however, is deprecated and no longer described in this documentation.

  2. The function ENG(<number>, scaleFactors=False) has been added to write numbers in enginering notation. It is used in the following functions:

    • elementData2html

    • params2html

    • expr2html

    • eqn2html

    • pz2html

    • specs2html

    If scalefactors = True, scale factors from \(y=10^{-24}\cdots P=10^{15}\) are used. If scalefactors = False and eng_notation = True, engineering notation will be used (powers of 10 are an integer multiple of 3).

    Application of this function is defined in the SLiCAP.ini file in the project folder. Default setting are:

    [display]
    scalefactors = False
    eng_notation = True
    
  3. The SLiCAP.ini files in the ~/SliCAP/ folder and in the project folder are automatically updated in case in which they are corrupted or incomplete.
