Software Change Description

Brief summary of what differs in patch III compared to previous version.

Improvements:

• In BVA, the standard log abundance values that by default are plotted on the y-axis in the graph view are also included in a new column in the appearance table named “Std Log Abund.”.

• In BVA, the remove spot map function has been replaced by a corresponding remove gel function.

• In BVA, a slight modification to how landmarks are handled in the matching algorithm has been made. This usually results in slightly more consistent matching behavior when gels are re-matched, particularly in areas where manual modifications (Add/break match) have been made.

Corrections:

• In BVA, the positions of annotation labels in the gel views that have been manually moved are now saved with the rest of the workspace data.

• In BVA, paired t-test is now calculated as a paired and not an un-paired test.

• In BVA, an ongoing match operation can now be properly stopped and re-started.

• In EDA, the handling of interpretation queries containing protein ID’s that can not be found in the on line protein information database has been improved.
