On the way to Groundwater Recharge Estimation

New Features:

• Reorganized the code to be able to change the bin width of weather data in the hydrograph figure. This feature is now present in the code, but not yet linked in the UI.
• Made the action to create a new project an explicit task independent from the opening of an already existing project. This is to prevent the creation of files and folders by mistake all over the place.
• Added the option to show water level data as dots in the "computation" mode of the tab "Hydrograph".
• Added an option to change the datum of the water level time-series from ground surface to sea level.
• Possibility to load and plot soil stratigraphic layer in "computation mode" (Somewhat bugged for the moment).
• Recharge Calculation from Master Recession Curve (Not linked to UI yet).
• Improvement of the graph Weather Normals.

UI enhancements:

• Added a new window for the creation of new project that allows the used to input various information about the project that are saved in a ".what" file. ".what" files are now required to open a project in WHAT.
• Increased the heigh of the Menu Bar.
• More flexibility in the "waterlvl" input files format. Headers can now have any numbers of row.

Performance improvements:

• Improve the loading of waterlvl data file into memory. It is now around 8 times faster
• Optimized the way weather data bin were calculated. 2 times more efficient and now allow for a bin with a variable width. Will soon add the option in the UI. This is a step towards being able to have tick marks on an other time scale than month.
• Huge improvement for the computation of the MRC with a modified Gauss-Newton method.

Graph Design:

• Added an option to disabled and change the type of gridlines used for the production of the hydrographs.
• Added an option to plot the waterlvl without the weather.

Bug Fix:

• Solved a bug that prevented the saving of the "weather normals" figure when an extension was explicitly added at the end of the file name before saving. This problem was more apparent for Windows user since Windows automatically add a file extension to the file name in its save file dialog window.
• Solved a bug in “hydroprint” that prevented the water level to be plotted when “trend_line” option was set to 1 in the “graph_layout.lst” file.
• Solved a bug when the “calculate MRC” button was clicked and not min-man were selected previously.
