v0.9.20 (CRAN)

Changes in version 0.9.20 (2022-07-14)

This package version requires R >= 4.1

Bugfixes and changes

analyse_Al2O3C_Measurement()

• Add support for sequences without TL curves in the sequence;
  however, the function still expects three OSL curves for natural,
  regenerated, and background signal.

merge_RLum.Data.Curve()

• The function works better if curves of different lengths are
  merged, but it still throws an error if the resolution is not
  similar.

plot_RLum.Data.Curve()

• Add support for ... arguments las and axes

plot_RLum.Data.Spectrum()

• The plot.types = "single" and plot.type = "multiple.lines" had
  two long-standing issues with the colour rug (both are fixed):

  • The colour rug showed ugly overplotting,
  • the colour rug had a resolution that depended on the x-axis
    (wavelength) scaling.

• plot.types = "single" and plot.type = "multiple.lines" now
  support a ... parameter box for removing the outer plot frame.
  The argument was named box to avoid a confusion with the term
  frames used for image stacks.

• plot.types = "single" and plot.type = "multiple.lines" now
  support a ... parameter frames for picking the frames to be
  visualised beyond the axis limitation.

plot_DRCSummary()

• The function did not know how to hand the output, if the fit was
  LambertW; added.
• The function now roughly checks whether all curves have used the
  same equation for the fitting, if not it throws an error.
• The ... arguments allowed to modify the plot are now mentioned in
  the documentation.
• The ... are better recycled to avoid a function crash in case the
  user did not provide the arguments in the required length.

plot_GrowthCurve()

• The formula returned in the output if fit.method = "LambertW" was
  not correct; fixed. The fit and the fitting were not affected;
  though.

read_BIN2R()

• The example in the documentation was a little bit too generic and is
  now replaced by an example that works.

write_R2BIN()

• The running example was not working because it used outdated example
  data. The example was replaced by a working example using an actual
  BINX-file. (thanks @JohannesFriedrich for reporting, #110)
• The terminal output of the function could not be silenced. Now the
  output (except for the progress bar, which can be switched off) is a
  message(), allowing to disable the terminal output.

Internals

• Add new internal function .add_fancy_log_axis() to provide a more
  sophisticated log-axis to plots if needed with minor ticks and
  proper labelling.
• Fix wrong usage of class() where needed
