---- log of AFNI updates (most recent first) ----
18 Mar 2026, RC Reynolds, 1d_tool.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
add -censor_to_spike_regs
Use this option to convert a 3dDeconvolve-style censor file
to an equivalent multi-column spike regressor file.
09 Mar 2026, RC Reynolds, afni_system_check.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 6 (ENHANCE)
on macos, check CPU type for gcc vs that of system
30 Jan 2026, DR Glen, afni, level 2 (MINOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX)
Overlay toggle fix
Overlay would not turn off properly with overlay 'o' key or Overlay button
21 Jan 2026, RC Reynolds, afni, level 2 (MINOR), type 5 (MODIFY)
can specify whether to redraw, even on non-macos26
Have new options -x_needsX11Redraw() : do we redraw on resize?
-x_have_MACOS_FORCE_EXPOSE : is the compile flag set?
Use Y/N env var AFNI_DO_X11_REDRAW to force redrawing. Else, default
is still based on macos 26 and compile flag.
20 Jan 2026, RC Reynolds, afni, level 3 (MAJOR), type 4 (BUG_FIX)
on macos 26, fully redraw any resized windows
The major updates were from RW Cox.
If using macos 26, resize events will have top-level windows call
XClearArea() and XSync(), and recursively on all children.
RW Cox rewrote AFNI graphs to continue drawing into fd_pxWind, but to
then copy this into the windows, rather than just having it as the
background.
Applying these 2 changes requires building with MACOS_FORCE_EXPOSE set,
currently done for both official mac systems.
RW Cox also added FIX_TOPFORM_HEIGHT to control window sizing in Linux.
These updates were also done with D Glen, who is now working on suma.
08 Jan 2026, RC Reynolds, install_bootcamp_data.tcsh, level 3 (MAJOR), type 1 (NEW_PROG)
new program to install the AFNI bootcamp data
Download and install all packages in the checksum file.
07 Jan 2026, RC Reynolds, 1d_tool.py, level 2 (MINOR), type 2 (NEW_OPT)
add -show_xmat_warnings
Warn on all-zero regressors or ones with small magnitudes.
