Scaffold 3.0.0 release notes - Major Release Notes

 

Scaffold 2.6.01 release notes

 

Scaffold Bug fixes

-Fixed a bug where deltaCN values where miscalculated when read from Discoverer MSF files.

-Fixed a bug where Scaffold was dropping some spectral information from Discoverer MSF files.

-If accession numbers or descriptions are corrupt Scaffold will now display a warning to notify the user that their data is corrupt.

-Fixed a bug in the Mascot parser that was mis-reading modifications and then feeding them to X! Tandem. Scaffold now properly reads in Mascot modifications and feeds them to X tandem.

-Fixed a bug where Scaffold was improperly assigning peptides that differed in one "I" versus "L" assignment. This bug fix also corrected numerous grouping errors associated with peptide selection.

-Fixed a bug where Scaffold was not remembering when the automated peptide checkbox setter was used after a file was closed. Formerly Scaffold was reverting the changes back to 50%, but now Scaffold keeps the setting that the user selected.

-Fixed a bug where Scaffold had been incorrectly picking the second peptide in closely related OMSSA search results.

* Scaffold's spectrum counting report now correctly reports the unweighted spectral count.

* ScaffoldBatch can now turn NCBI annotations off.

* Fixed a bug where Scaffold Q+ was mislabeling TMT modifications.

New Features:

* Warning introduced when data searched against multiple databases is loaded into Scaffold.

* Scaffold cannot yet load ETD data searched with Z-core algorithm in Discoverer.

Other:

* Earlier versions of Scaffold may not be able to open files created in Scaffold 2.5. Please update to the latest release of Scaffold.

 

Scaffold 2.2.1 release notes

 

Scaffold 2.2.1 fixes an issue where indexing GOA database on 64 bit
windows and mac machines was very slow.  This is the only change in this
version and users on 32 bit machines need not upgrade.  (1714)

 

Scaffold: 2.2.0 release notes

 

* Scaffold now supports loading protein annotations from the Gene Ontology Annotations (GOA) database. In addition to retrieving annotations from the NCBI, Scaffold can now annotate against a local database that is more extensive (particularly for the UniProt database) and includes information about the provenance of the annotation (for example, whether it was made by a human or a computer program). Scaffold also now allows you to choose exactly which GO terms are displayed.
(1593-1595 and others)

* Re-written "Queue files from Mascot Server" feature allows filtering and sorting, and improves performance and reliability. (1577)

* ScaffoldBatch 2.2 supports platform independent paths in scafml (batch
driver) files. In other words:

<Scaffold pathsep="/">
<!-- ... -->
<InputFile>../foo/bar/baz.dat</InputFile>
<!-- ... -->
</Scaffold>

should work on Windows. (1473)

* A bug where Scaffold could, in some rare cases, loose protein isoforms has been fixed. In order to restore these isoforms, Scaffold will automatically re-perform protein grouping on file open. (1691)

* Improved collation of spectra across multiple search engines, especially for non-mudpit searches. (1588)

* A bug where certain Mascot files could cause Scaffold to erroneously register very large numbers of modifications has been fixed. (1616)

* Scaffold now attempts to recover data files after a crash. (1673)

* Fixed a bug where Scaffold 2.x incorrectly detected ETD/ECD data in Mascot files. (1692)

* Performance improvements made to looking up proteins in large FASTA databases. (1693)

* Restored output of modified amino acids in spectrum report. (1615)

* Updated the set of gene ontology terms that Scaffold uses. (1634)

* Fixed a problem with Spectrum Mill modifications. (1644)

* Added "End of File" to all Scaffold exports. (1664)

* Converting version 1.x files is now faster. (1395)
