- RecalibrateSpectra.lua has been added to the script collection. It recalibrates spectral dimensions matching a specified chemical shift range and atomtype by a fixed amount. E.g. to shift the calibration of all aliphatic 13C dimensions by 2.5
- January 2009
- RemoveAliases.lua has been updated to add a user interface. No editing of the script is necessary to execute the script on your project. The script also includes a new option to allow the removal of all alias shifts from a project. This version replaces RemoveAllAliases.lua
- Pick_3D_Peaks.lua has been updated to pick negative peaks.
- WriteAssignments.lua has been updated to write out degenerate shifts properly in BMRB's NMR-STAR 2.1 format and to allow output of only a subset of the available assignments (e.g. only Backbone). It now also allows the residue numbers to be renumbered by chain Nr.
- DefineInfo.lua has been added to script collection. After executing this script once, the command "Info( ObjectClass)" in the LUA terminal prints all available functions of a given object class. (This script has now REALLY been added to the LUA script collection)
- CalcMassOfLabeledMolecule.lua has been updated. It now includes a checkbox to calculate the expected mass for mass-spectrometry and can also calculate the mass in solution for a given pH.

2007
- November 2007
- CalcMassOfLabeledMolecule.lua has been updated in the LUA scripts. It allows the calculation of the mass of a molecule. User can now specifiy the percentages of Isotope-labeling and whether the expected mass should be calculated for Mass-Spec or in solution at a given pH.
- WriteAssignments.lua has been updated to allow a subset of the available assignments to be written out (e.g. only Backbone or only Protons)
- October 2007
- WriteAssignments.lua has been updated to write out degenerate shifts correctly in BMRB NMR-STAR 2.1 format. Each atom with the same shift is written out on a separate line and given the appropriate ambiguity code.
- HetNoe.lua has been added to the LUA scripts. It supports the analysis of {1H}15N-nOes within CARA.
- March-April 2007
- 1.8.4 includes alpha version of isotope-labeling functions. See release notes for details
- A new LUA script has been added, ShowNoesInMolmol.lua that supports NOE assignment and structure refinement. The script generates a molmol script that highlights atoms in the structure which could be involved in an NOE.
- February 2007
- 1.8.3 stable release on windows, OSX, PowerPC, solaris, irix and linux. 1.8.3 has been statically compiled so that it is not dependepent on the Microsoft CRT assembly. See release notes for additional changes.
- January 2007
- 1.8.2 did not run on some Windows Installations. This problem has been solved. See the footnote 3) on the download page and the related issue in the Tracker: http://www.cara.ethz.ch/Tracker/0785
- Updated the guide to StructureCalculation?. Now there is also a "untested" section on manual structure calculation.
- 1.8.2 stable release on windows and linux.
2006
- December 2006
- 1.8.1 stable release on all major platforms. Completes the transition to the new gui library. Uses Lua 5.1 and Qt4.2. Added ability to adjust intensity display with "cw" command. Can write out spectral regions (like planes) from buffers using CALUA. See Release notes at http://www.nmr.ch for details.
- A new LUA script has been added, ShiftSpinsInCatagory.lua, that supports the adjustment of spin shifts in catagories (aromatics, amines etc...) which is helpful for calibrating shifts and correcting differences resulting from incompatible referencing of spectra during the assignment phase of a project.
- November 2006
- The new LUA script CreateOriginSystemsFromProjectedSpins.lua has been corrected for several bugs. Version 3 works.
- The IssueTracker is reopened for business! Please enter the numbers displayed in the window at the bottom of an Issue to confirm the entry. Thanks!
- 1.8.1a4 alpha release, fixes some issues related to Qt4 binding and printing.
- IssueTracker temporarily closed due to unwanted entries (unrelated to CARA)
- 1.8.1a3 alpha release completes the migration of the whole CARA/Lua binding (Gui, Spec etc.) to the new Lua5.1/Qt4.2 layer.
- 1.8.1a1 and 1.8.1a2 alpha releases of CARA. a1 is a hybrid of old and new gui library where as a2 runs entirely on the new gui library. Those interested in CARA development or providing feedback can try these releases out.
- October 2006
- Reorganized CALUA page by placing scripts into separate pages.
- A bug fix release for 1.7.0 is available 1.7.1 which can be downloaded at the usual place.
- Added the LUA script IsotopeShiftAliases.lua which creates aliases to adjust for deuterium isotope shifts in spectra measured on perdeuterated protein.
- Added the LUA script ExportSpinLinksToUpls.lua which exports spinlinks to a UPL file. Each UPL is 5.0 Angstroms.
- Updated WriteAssignmentsInFormatX.lua. the successor LUA script WriteAssignments.lua can write out alias shifts from a specific spectrum. This allows users to write out separate protonlists for each NOESY spectrum used in a structure calculation.
- Rewrote the wiki pages on HeteronuclearBackboneAssignment? and HeteronuclearSidechainAssignment?. There is now a section on how to use the HCCONH experiments. Also a new script was added to the CALUA page which allows assignments obtained from HCCONH experiments to be transferred into the origin system.
- September 2006
- 1.7.0 stable release of CARA incorporating Qt4.
- August 2006:
- Added a wiki page with a guide on how to interface CARA with StructureCalculation?.
- New releases of CARA
- 1.7.0b1 introduces the first beta release of CARA incorporating Qt4.
- 1.7.0b2 fixes a couple of bugs in 1.7.0b1
- the ruler displays in SystemScope? in 1.7.0b2
- the box around selected spins still covers the part of the label text, but it is better than before.
- July 2006:
- New releases of CARA:
- 1.5.5 fixes a problem in the contour display of folded regions resulting in an error in the picked position of up to FoldLevel? x Delta (the spectral resolution of the dim). This can result in systematic errors in the position of spins particularly when they were picked in the multiply folded regions of spectra with low resolution in the corresponding spectral dimension (e.g. 13Cmethyl spins adapted to the 13Cali dimension of 3D 13Cali NSY using CARA versions < 1.5.5). There is a script available at the CALUA page to adapt the spin shifts to the correct position: CorrectShiftsForFoldErrorInCaraBelow155.lua. The contours should agree with the corrected shifts when viewed with 1.5.5.
- 1.7.0a5 is an alpha release which introduces the new Qt4 graphics engine. Users interested in CARA development are encouraged to test the alpha version and report both suggested improvements and bugs in the IssueTracker or directly to the developer.
- IssueTracker is put back on line after an upgrade and the installation of a filter. If you find any inappropriate issues or follow-ups (items not related to CARA), please report it to the Cara Definition Team. Thanks!
- June 2006: IssueTracker temporarily taken offline due to Spam-bot. It will be up as soon as we find a way to solve the problem.

- Pick_3D_Peaks.lua uses local maxima in a 3D and the anchor positions of spin systems already in the project to pick spin along the strip axis at the appropriate chemical shifts
- Jan-Feb 2006: new Lua scripts have been added to the CALUA page
- ExportToXplor.lua converts spinlinks into a UPL file for X-Plor
