      Description

      I see some documentation on how to add a placeholder Gaussian Psf to an image (to work around the fact that some algorithms require a Psf) was recently added to the release notes. I don't think that's actually appropriate, as the same algorithms also required Psfs in the framework - the failure mode was just different (previously, it'd just result in all objects being flagged and the peak position used for the centroid, so it may have been easy to miss - hence the change to a fatal error).

      I propose moving the example to the documentation for SingleFrameMeasurementTask, and taking it out of the release notes. I'll also make sure there's a link from the Measurement Framework Overhaul Release Notes page to the Doxygen for SingleFrameMeasurementTask - I'm not sure if that's sufficient to make up the visibility gap between the Doxygen docs and the release notes in Confluence, but I don't have any other short-term ideas.

            Fine by me; this was just an emergency fix.

            Moving the example is fine as I mentioned in the chat. But I think a line mentioning the difference in the release notes and implying you can find instructions in the link is still appropriate since, to the user, it is an important change.

            For reference, the release notes being referred to are for 10.1 (Winter 2015).

            I don't remember what this is about and I don't think anyone else is likely to either.
