napari 0.4.14#

We’re happy to announce the release of napari 0.4.14! napari is a fast, interactive, multi-dimensional image viewer for Python. It’s designed for browsing, annotating, and analyzing large multi-dimensional images. It’s built on top of Qt (for the GUI), vispy (for performant GPU-based rendering), and the scientific Python stack (numpy, scipy).

This is a small release containing some new features and fixing a few issues that have come up since 0.4.13 was released.

This release adds the ability to convert a shapes layer to a labels layer from a context menu available on right clicking the layer list entry (#3978). Our vectors layer has gained the ability to render vectors in 2D across multiple slices (#2902) and points in the points layer can now be hidden individually (#3625).
