Release of OMERO 5.3.1

Dear All,

Today we are releasing OMERO 5.3.1. This is a bug-fix release focusing on shares.

Improvements include:

• allow to view images in share. LUT, despite being available in the UI, are not supported in share, this is a known limitation that could lead to the image displayed as thumbnail and the image displayed in the main viewer not being synchronized.
• allow to import hidden image files (Windows client issue)
• clarify installation of OMERO.web
• save polygon and polyline as defined in the OME model
• fix viewing of images without pixels size
• add support for large image export as jpeg/png from OMERO.insight

This release also upgrades the version of Bio-Formats which OMERO uses to 5.4.1 [1].

The software is available at: http://downloads.openmicroscopy.org/omero/5.3.1

Regards,

The OME Team
