New:
-
A new DataSet type DataSetInMem has been added. This allows users to meassure without writing raw data to an sqlite database as well as to load netcdf files into a QCoDeS dataset. See here and here. (#3094)

Added function get_channel_by_name to ChannelList class to get or or more channels in a ChannelList by name. (#3431)
-
The changelog for upcoming changes in the next release is now automatically build from fragments as part of the documentation. (#3451)
Improved:
-
The QcoDeS monitor can now be launched directly from a console using by running qcodes-monitor(.exe) (#3475)
-
dond avoids setting setpoint parameters with values that are already set. This significantly improves the performance of the dond function in multi-dimensional measurements. (#3534)
-
doNd functions now manually wait the delay between setpoints instead of using parameters post_delay attribute. This change prevents unintentional slow downs in measurements when the step delay of a setpoint parameter is considerably lower than the delay between measurement step points that passed into doNd functions. (#3576)
