TUI 1.8.4 is now available from the usual location:
<http://www.apo.nmsu.edu/35m_operations/TUI-images/>
Changes from 1.8.3 are detailed in the Version History
<http://www.apo.nmsu.edu/35m_operations/TUI/VersionHistory.html>
and include:
=95 Guider windows: added Center button to slitviewers that will center =20=
the selected star.
=95 Combined the Guide Monitor and Seeing Monitor into one window and =20=
changed the displayed time span to one hour. Added a brief description =20=
to the main Guiding help page.
=95 Focus scripts: enhanced error handling and status reporting. They =20=
now show cleanup actions in the log. They will wait for cleanup =20
actions to finish if possible, and if not then will show a warning in =20=
the log.
=95 Improved description of motor current limit status bit and removed =20=
descriptions for unused bits (thanks to Fritz for updating the =20
controller status documentation).
Warning to All Users
If TUI quits while starting up then issue the following command (on =20
Mac OS X use Terminal):
cd ~/.matplotlib
rm fontList.cache
rm -rf tex.cache
Mac users may have to do this any time you move or rename TUI. Unix =20
users will probably only have to do it if you move matplotlib. What's =20=
going on is that matplotlib fails to run if its font cache file is out =20=
of date. This is a known bug that will be fixed in the next version of =20=
matplotlib.
These instructions are in the Version History near the top and the =20
observing specialists can point you there if necessary.
