* Bug fixes:

* InterSpec would not start for Windows users with some non-English characters (ex, an umlaut) in their user names. Paths with these letters also affected the file query tool, or if the open file menu item was used to open spectrum file.

* This new charting mechanism will make it easier to implement richer, more interactive features in the future.
1313
* On touch-devices, some touch interactions are working, but there is no timeline for when the rest will be implemented, so for now phone and tablet versions of the app will use the old charting mechanism

* There are significant additional performance improvements and user experience improvements possible, but there is no timeline for this work

All these videos are also available within `InterSpec` by going to the **Help** → **Welcome...** menu item, and then selecting the **Controls** tab.

* Select the **View** → **Chart Options** → **Show Y-Axis Scalers** menu option to enable the scalers on the right side of the chart. Scalers are only shown for the background and secondary spectra, and only when they are plotted (eg, if you are only displaying a foreground spectrum, no sliders will be shown). The **Spectrum Files** tab has a button to re-Live-Time normalize the spectra (which `InterSpec` does by default) if you wish. Whether these scalers are shown or not is remembered by `InterSpec` in future sessions.

* Move your mouse to within 10 pixels of the edge of a ROI, and the cursor will change indicating you can left-click and drag the ROI edge to where you would like. Your mouse must also be approximately within the Y-axis range of the peak as well (this is so when you have HPGe spectra with many peaks, you wont accidentally grab a ROI edge when zooming in and out).

* Dragging one side of a ROI past the other side of a ROI will delete the ROI.

* You can also adjust the ROI range (and everything else about the peak) using the **Peak Editor** that can be gotten to by right-clicking on a peak

* Same as before. The easiest way to fit a peak is to just double click in the vicinity of the peak region. If you want to add another peak nearby, just double click again. You can also right-click on a peak and select to add a peak in the same region of interest (ROI).

* If you do this twice in a row, like first on a low energy peak, then a high energy peak (or vice versa), the dialog that pops up will have an option that will make it so both of your calibrations points will be preserved by adjusting both the gain and offset.
