3.3.0

What's Changed

• [fixed] multiple calls to setImageSurvey with the same survey object led to strange behaviour.
• [perf] Display the first tile received instantly with no blending. Should enhance the slow reported in issue #88.
• [fixed] A.on('select') (debugged from ipyaladin)
• [fixed] Simbad pointer in galactical frame, cone search of simbad/vizier cats/other cone search services in galactical frame and MOC creation from selection in galactical frame => there is now a new frame optional param to Aladin.pix2world. If not given, the coo returned are in the frame of the view.
• [doc] Add doc for image survey definition
• [deprecation] A.createImageSurvey/A.newImageSurvey are now deprecated (but still in the API). Please use A.imageHiPS instead by providing a valid url or CDS ID conformed to https://aladin.cds.unistra.fr/hips/list
• [refac] Simplify the instanciation of an imageHiPS/ imageFITS. Add a A.imageHiPS method for defining a HiPS object
• [fixed] At initialisation, giving a fov > 180 was clamped back to 180 even if we specify allsky projection (i.e. accepting fov > 180). This is now fixed.
• [fixed] MeasurementTable now display the full cell values (no ellipsis anymore)
• [fixed] aladin.on('select') has been implemented. Callback is triggered on a circle and rect selections for not on polygonal selection.
• [fixed] the cooFrame UI selector is updated if the user calls aladin.setFrame
• [fixed] reticleColor and reticleSize options in the public API
• Restore setFoVRange
