Hi all,
I am glad to announce a new version of the Weighted Batch Pre Processing WBPP script 2.3.0. This update is distributed with the new PixInsight core application 1.8.8-10 and makes available the new image weighting methods PSF Signal, PSF Power and improved SNR Waight along with other important features and bug fixes.
New Image Weighting Option
The Subframe Weighting section under the Light tab is now used to set the desired image weighting strategy. The options are PSF Signal, PSF Power, SNR Weight and the Weighting Formula.
Weighting formula extension
The weighting formula now includes the PSF Signal and PSF Power measurement as a weighting factor.
File Overwriting is now avoided
WBPP now sets the "Overwrite existing files" option to false for each executed process. This solves the issue that raises when files with the same name but stored in different folders are added to the same calibration or integration group, resulting in a calibration error message or in one file overwriting the other during registration.
Original files are newer overwritten
In some cases, WBPP 2.2.0 and below could overwrite the original files. Now, if WBPP needs to update any file that contains the original data (to be precise, a file that has not yet been processed during the current WBPP execution) a new copy will be stored under a folder called measured, adopting the same subfolder and file name of the original files.
Console Measurements output updated
Image measurements performed by Subframe Selection reported on the console now includes the PSF Signal and PSF Power values.
Diagnostics Readability improved
The diagnostic report readability has been improved by colonizing notes, warnings and errors with the standard colours used in the console.
Bugfixes
Enjoy this new upgrade!

Bugfixes
- CFA property in post-process groups is now refreshed when CFA property is updated in the calibration panel.
Enjoy this new upgrade!
