  • Use local copy of tooltip.py from idle.

  • Allow groups in netcdf files.

  • Made ncvue work with newer matplotlib versions, updating colormaps and using matplotlib.pyplot.style ‘seaborn-v0_8-dark’.

  • Made ncvue work with newer Tcl/Tk versions (ttk.Style.theme_use).

v4.1.2 (Jun 2022)

  • Made ncvue a gui_script entry_point, so it can be called by python -m ncvue.

  • Bumped minimum Python version to 3.7 because of proj4.

v4.1.1 (Nov 2021)

  • Added package_data to setup.cfg.

v4.1 (Nov 2021)

  • Add final routines add_cyclic and has_cyclic committed to cartopy v0.20.1.

  • Added ncvue to conda-forge.

  • Added scripts in [options] section in setup.cfg.

v4.0 (Oct 2021)

  • Move to new pip structure using pyproject.toml.

  • Versioning with setuptools_scm.

  • Move to src directory structure.

  • Move to Github actions.

v3.8 (Oct 2021)

  • Work with files without an unlimited (time) dimension.

  • Removed bug in detection of lon/lat.

  • Identify lon/lat also by axis attributes x/y or X/Y.

  • Do not default the unlimited dimension to ‘all’ if no lon/lat were found.

v3.7 (Sep 2021)

  • Use Azure theme v2.0 on Linux and Sun Valley theme v1.0 on Windows from rdbende (rdbende).

  • Does not provide standalone package (no installer) on macOS with Apple Silicon (M1) chip anymore (no paid Apple Developer ID).

v3.6 (Jun 2021)

  • Separate variables and dimensions by space again but deal with space in variable names.

  • Use cx_Freeze to make standalone apps.

  • Font size 13 on Windows in plot panel.

v3.5.1 (Jun 2021)

  • Set labelling of second y-axis to the right explicitly, which needs to be done with newer Matplotlib versions.

v3.5 (Jun 2021)

  • Uses different themes on different operating systems.

  • New add_cyclic function used as submitted to Cartopy.

v3.4 (May 2021)

  • Works in ipython and jupyter notebooks. Adapted documentation accordingly.

  • Added license to documentation.

  • Change separator character to unit separator (ASCII 31).

  • Print correct coordinates and values on plotting window.

  • Set time axis to numpy’s datetime64 format.

  • Moved from Matplotlib style seaborn-darkgrid to seaborn-dark.

  • Grid is drawn by hand in contour plot. Set automatic grid to False: self.axes.grid(False).

v3.3.1 (Feb 2021)

  • Better installation instructions for all platforms.

  • Dropped claim of Python 2 support, which was not given.

v3.3 (Feb 2021)

  • Main window disappears if closed even if called from within Python.

  • Added Windows Installer for ncvue standalone program.

  • Added standalone app for macOS.

v3.2 (Jan 2021)

  • Added ‘Open File’ button to switch between files.

  • Separated Tk() and Toplevel() to communicate via Tk() between windows.

  • Externalise analysis of netcdf file for open file button.

  • Allow finding images path in standalone applications using pyinstaller.

v3.1 (Jan 2021)

  • Include ncvue/images/*.png in PyPI wheel.

v3.0 (Jan 2021)

  • Moved from ReadTheDocs to Github Pages for documentation.

  • Added tooltips to all selectors, entries, menus.

  • Variable names are now separated by SEPCHAR=chr(6) because netcdf variable names can have spaces, parentheses, brackets, etc.

  • Map panel is only chosen first if either lon or lat have more than one grid cell.

  • Central longitude is now calculated in 0-360 range but set in -180 to 180 range. Seems to be more stable for grids that are missing for example the southern hemisphere.

  • Catch a few errors if variable is for example a simple string (e.g. vegetation type, basin name or similar).

v2.0 (Jan 2021)

  • Added Map panel.

  • Assure 2-digit month and day and 4 digit year in time unit.

  • Added return on numeric keyboard to key bindings.

  • Changed layout so that dimensions are below variable selection spinboxes.

  • Transpose array by default in Contour panel so that first dimension (time) is on x-axis (col) because contourf/pcolormesh use (row,col).

  • Common arithmetic operations on axes: mean, std, min, max, ptp, sum, median, var.

  • General get_slice function for x, y, y2, and z.

  • Only activate valid dimensions for chosen variable, disable others.

  • Axis labels are now the long_name attribute then the standard_name attribute and only if both are missing the variable name.

v1.4 (Dec 2020)

  • Colorbar menu with images of colorbars.

  • Use unlimited dimension instead of first dimension in Scatter and Contour panels as default for ‘all’.

  • Use slice function rather than numpy.take to extract slices of arrays, i.e. reads only the current slice from disk.

  • Enhanced documentation with automatic API generation.

v1.3 (Dec 2020)

  • Use zmin/zmax to fix colorbar for different dimensions in Contour panel.

  • Optional grid lines in Contour panel.

  • Possibility to invert x-axis in Scatter/Line panel.

  • Rename Scatter to Scatter/Line.

  • Use build instead of cibuildwheel to make pure Python wheels.

v1.2 (Dec 2020)

  • Put common methods in ncvmethods (first arg is self).

  • Make lists of labels, spinboxes and values of dimensions rather than exhaustive lists of if/elif statements.

v1.1 (Dec 2020)

  • Modularised ncvue to have utilities and different panels in individual files.

  • Open new window without helper class ncvWin to avoid circular import when modularised.
