There is a new release of iMosflm available from the MRC-LMB web site: https://www.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/harry/imosflm/ <https://www.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/harry/imosflm/>
The changes since the previous version are listed below, perhaps the most important is that this version will read the “full cbf” image format produced on beam lines IO4 and IO3 (and other beamlines in the near future) at the Diamond Light Source. Please notify mos...@mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk <mailto:mos...@mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk> of any issues with this version. Andrew Leslie & Harry Powell Allow reading new-style Pilatus full CBF images written at Diamond Light Source (currently on beamlines IO4 and IO3 but soon to be extended to other beamlines). Version 7.2.1 will NOT read these images. Correct a bug introduced in version 7.2.1 that caused detector parameter refinement to fail if detector parameters that were previously fixed were subsequently allowed to refine. Deal optimally with Pilatus detectors where pixels in the gaps between modules have been assigned a value of zero rather than -1 (the default). Check to make sure duplicate image numbers cannot be given to Integration task. XML output being provided for CCP4i2 from both QuickScale and QuickSymm tasks. Replaced pop-up that gave advice on how to proceed after indexing failure with one that gives option widgets and somewhat clearer advice. Always set the pixel size from the current session; occasionally previous versions retained the pixel size from previous sessions (when using the "New session" option) which caused problems if the detector changed. Metadata from Rigaku Pilatus detectors handled better (crystal to detector distance and detector two-theta angle were decoded incorrectly). Small change in treatment for image data from Rigaku Pilatus detectors (default value for gain changed). Improved reading of metadata from Ed Westbrook's Taurus detector. Many output statements modified to help ensure valid XML is supplied to iMosflm. Tile boundaries correctly specified for Pilatus 2M. Improve spot-finding near tile boundaries and shadows by reducing default size of local background box to 10 pixels and increasing the size of the safety zone (excluded from spot finding) adjacent to tile boundaries and defined masked areas. Use the "count_cutoff" value from image header to set the detector saturation value for Pilatus and Eiger detectors. Automatically set the "reverse phi" flag for detectors at Spring-8, recognised by the detector serial number.
