If you need access to MantidPlot then v5.1.1 can be accessed at our archives<https://download.mantidproject.org/archives.html> page. This release includes several improvements to the user experience, notably a new widget to display total memory usage and an additional setting to the window behaviour of plots and interfaces. Other highlights from this release include: * A new LeanElasticPeak object for constant wavelength instruments that is supported in existing algorithms for e.g. peak prediction and integration. * Added setting to allow user to select Floating/On Top behaviour. * Sectors drawn in the instrument viewer can now be used to define wedges for azimuthal averaging of 2D SANS data using Q1DWeighted<https://docs.mantidproject.org/v6.1.0/algorithms/Q1DWeighted…ed>. * ConvertUnits<https://docs.mantidproject.org/v6.1.0/algorithms/ConvertUni… algorithm has been extended to use diffractometer constants from instrument calibration. * New algorithm GeneratePythonFitScript<https://docs.mantidproject.org/v6.1.0/algorithms… allows the creation of a python script for sequential fitting. * New algorithm in development, CalculateMultipleScattering<https://docs.mantidproject.org/v6.1.0/algori…ng>, to calculate multiple scattering corrections.
