Summary

This release provides new functionality, enhancements to existing functionality and also fixes various bugs.

New Functionality

  • Added a preference panel for specifying the logged in user. This can be used by plugins and is also used when auto-creation of metadata is enabled.

  • It is now possible to automatically attach meta-data to freshly created classes (#283). Thanks go to @cmungall for suggesting this and for input from the OBO community for contribution of ideas (in particular @tberardini, @mellybelly,
    @mcourtot, @dosumis).

  • Images that are pointed to by annotation values are now displayed inline as thumbnails (#315)�

image-annotation

- Made the search engine that Protege uses pluggable (a Lucene search plugin is on the way) (#284)

New Plugins

SWRL Plugin

The SWRL Plugin is a port of the the SWRL tab functionality from Protégé 3. Read more at https://github.com/protegeproject/swrltab-plugin/releases

DL Query Plugin

Updated the DL Query plugin to version 3.0.1. For details please see: https://github.com/protegeproject/dlquery/releases/tag/org.coode.dlquery-3.0.1

Enhancements and Fixes

  • Asserted and inferred hierarchies are now combined into single views. They can be switched using the drop down box, or by pressing "a" for asserted or "i" for inferred when the associated view has the focus. (#145)
  • Cleaned up the metrics view by removing unnecessary clutter
  • Copying errors from the log view to the clipboard now includes stack traces (#297)
  • Added a button for clearing the log in the log view (#296)
  • The error icon is now cleared after the log view is closed (#305)
  • Cleaned up and refined the user interface and reduced clutter where possible
  • Moved the log file location to the user home directory (#299)
  • Fixed a problem where Protege did not detect when loaded source files had changed externally and offer to reload them (#300)
  • Fixed a problem with syntax checking in the general class axioms view (#302)
  • The object property hierarchy now displays sub-properties correctly (#306)
  • Added a log message to describe when plugin update files cannot be parsed
  • Removed formatting markers that showed up in console logs on Windows (#303)
  • Added a missing flag to the Windows run.bat file that ensures array index out of bound exceptions do not occur (#307 and #226)
  • Fixed a problem with adding data ranges to properties (#308)
  • Fixed a problem that caused icons on tabs to be painted incorrectly (#309)
  • Well known IRIs that have well known prefixes are now rendered as prefix names regardless of the selected renderer (#310)
  • The auto-complete would not match annotation properties (#311)
  • Fixed a problem where "Optional" would appear in ontology IRIs rendered in the user interface (#313)
  • Fixed a problem where imported ontologies were loaded using the incorrect OWL API method. This could cause import loading to raise errors when adding imports (#314)
  • Changed the accelerator key for copying tab indented text from hierarchies because it clashed with the copy accelerator key (#316)
  • Made it possible to copy class names from the class hierarchy (#222)
  • Adjusted run scripts so that they work better with symbolic links (#318) (thanks go to @ShahimEssaid for the contribution)
  • Fixed a problem where the explanation dialog would raise an error if there were no explanation plugins installed (#319)
  • Fixed a problem with drag being enabled when it was disabled in the UI preferences (#322)
  • Fixed a problem where an inconsistent ontology exception would leak out from the inferred object property hierarchy (#328)
  • Fixed a problem where "Render by Prefixed Annotation property would display two prefixes (#327)

Summary

This release provides new functionality, enhancements to existing functionality and also fixes various bugs.

New Functionality

  • Added the ability to copy sub-hierarchies as tab indented text. This applies to class and property hierarchies. Select a class or property and choose "Copy sub-hierarchy as tab indented text" from the Edit menu. (#233)
  • Moved to the OWL API 4.1.3. This is a major upgrade and it is possible that some plugins will need updating so that they will be compatible with this version of Protege.
  • Improved logging. Logs are now visible via the "Show log" item on the "Window" menu. Note: to enjoy the colorful logs also on Windows, you will need to install ANSICON (see https://goo.gl/dcDhwA).
  • Added an option to hide deprecated classes in the class tree. See the "Display deprecated (obsolete) entities" on the View menu. (#270)
  • Moved to Java 8.

New Plugins

Cellfie

Cellfie supports the creation of OWL ontologies from spreadsheets through a flexible mapping mechanism. To import data from a spreadsheet, go to Tools menu > Create axioms from Excel workbook. Cellfie is bundeled with the Protege distribution. Read more: https://github.com/protegeproject/cellfie-plugin, https://github.com/protegeproject/cellfie-plugin/wiki.

User Interface Enhancements and Fixes

  • ArrayIndexOutOfBounds exception could be thrown (in a seemly random fashion) when rendering things, which caused the user interface to become scrambled. This was due to a bug in the JVM and we have applied a recommended work around. (#226)
  • Updated the labels on the Entity Preferences panel so that it no longer refers to URIs (#176)
  • Search results are now shown in a popup dialog rather than a popup list. This means that the search results can be kept open and moved around instead of being fixed and overlapping the editing window. (#189)
  • Pressing return when a search result is selected in the search window now closes the search window (#188)
  • Double clicking a search result in the search window now closes the search window in addition to selecting the search result (#192)
  • Sized the entity search box so that it is the correct size on non-OSX look and feels (#146)
  • The keyboard shortcut for find (search) is now CTRL+F. Find in specific view is now CTRL+SHIFT+F (#193)
  • Components in dialogs are now focused consistently over different operating systems. Thanks to @fourcube. (#228)
  • The various hierarchies (class, property etc.) can be auto-expanded. However, the mouse/keyboard combination (CTRL+Click) was not working properly on windows. This has been fixed. (#231)
  • The "Create new" (entity) key combination was the same as the key combination for "New Ontology". This has been changed to CTRL+E. (#232)
  • Fixed a problem where spurious axiom annotations were displayed when changing entity selection. (#223)
  • The reasoner status message did not display correctly on Windows. Fixed. (#224)
  • The Protege icon was missing from the OS X distribution. (#211)
  • The Protege icon was missing from the Linux distribution. (#225)
  • Plugin update problems are now logged as "info" so that users can see the problems in the log (#172)
  • Fixed the "Zero length error" that could sometimes arise when search for an entity (#134)
  • Pressing "Escape" on the plugin update dialog throws an exception. Fixed (#273)
  • Added help text to the save as dialog. (#271)
  • Removed the dashed border on inferred axiom rows in order to reduce clutter (#277)
  • Fixed a problem that caused an error after ticking and un-ticking the Regular Expression box on the search panel if an invalid regular expression was present (#275)
  • Tidied up the look and feel of some preference panels. Some preference options have been consolidated.
  • Fixed a problem where boolean values for data property assertions would not parse as expected and cause the value to always be set to false. (#285)
  • Improved the error message for view plugins that could not be loaded (#291)

Reasoning Enhancements

  • Improved the algorithm for detecting and filtering ontology changes that should trigger reasoning (#170 - thanks to @ykazakov)

Development Enhancements and Fixes

  • Build products that include JREs are now only built when preparing a release, otherwise the platform independent build product is the only one that is built (#173)
  • Removed spurious import of internal apache package (Thanks to @sesuncedu)
  • Fixed a naming problem with OWLDescriptionChecker and OWLDescriptionSetChecker. This fix stops maven recompiling everything when not necessary. (Thanks to @sesuncedu)
  • The plugin.xml is now contained in the resources folder rather than the top level folder.
  • Removed the defunct IDE folder from the repository (#261)
  • Switched to SLF4J and Logback for logging.
  • Clear preferences does not always work - list and array preferences are not cleared. Thanks to @ykazakov (#186)
  • Updated the maven co-ordinates for various artefacts. Developers - please ensure you use the correct co-ordinates (the new co-ordinated have short, non-qualified names, for the artefact ids)
  • Updated developer documentation for building in Eclipse.
