Deprecated Methods

Method	Description
qupath.imagej.tools.IJTools.convertToAnnotation(ImagePlus, ImageServer<?>, Roi, double, ImagePlane)	use instead IJTools.convertToAnnotation(Roi, double, double, double, ImagePlane)

qupath.lib.common.ColorTools.makeRGB(int, int, int)	Use ColorTools.packRGB(int, int, int) or ColorTools.packClippedRGB(int, int, int) instead.
qupath.lib.common.ColorTools.makeRGBA(int, int, int, int)	The naming and order of arguments is misleading. The output is a packed ARGB value, but arguments are provided in the order red, green, blue, alpha.
qupath.lib.common.GeneralTools.getNameWithoutExtension(String)	v0.5.0 in favor of GeneralTools.stripExtension(String), which does the same thing but has a more descriptive name. See https://github.com/qupath/qupath/pull/1275 for details.
qupath.lib.display.ImageDisplay.applyTransforms(BufferedImage, BufferedImage, List<? extends ChannelDisplayInfo>, boolean)	use instead ImageDisplay.applyTransforms(BufferedImage, BufferedImage, List, ChannelDisplayMode)
qupath.lib.gui.images.servers.RenderedImageServer.Builder.display(ImageDisplay)	use RenderedImageServer.Builder.renderer(ImageRenderer) instead (since an ImageDisplay is also an ImageRenderer.

qupath.lib.images.servers.ImageServer.readBufferedImage(RegionRequest)	since v0.4.0. Implementations of ImageServer should override ImageServer.readRegion(RegionRequest) instead. This method will be removed in a future release; it exists now only to maintain compatibility with QuPath extensions that have not yet been updated to use the newer method.
qupath.lib.images.servers.LabeledImageServer.Builder.useUniqueLabels()	in favor of LabeledImageServer.Builder.useInstanceLabels()
qupath.lib.images.servers.TileRequest.getPlane()	v0.4.0 use TileRequest.getImagePlane() instead (changed for better consistency with other classes)

qupath.lib.images.writers.ome.OMEPyramidWriter.OMEPyramidSeries.writePyramid(PyramidOMETiffWriter, IMetadata, int)	use OMEPyramidWriter.OMEPyramidSeries.writeSeries(IFormatWriter, IMetadata, int) instead
qupath.lib.io.PathIO.getObjectFileExtensions()	use PathIO.getObjectFileExtensions(boolean) instead
qupath.lib.io.PathIO.readSerializedServerPath(File)	This was useful in QuPath v0.1.2 and earlier, since all information to construct a server was stored within its path. In v0.2 and later, the server path is in general not sufficient to construct a server, and this method lingers only for backwards compatibility. It will be removed in a later version.
qupath.lib.io.PointIO.readPointsObjectList(File)
qupath.lib.measurements.Measurement.isDynamic()
qupath.lib.measurements.MeasurementList.addMeasurement(String, double)	v0.4.0 use MeasurementList.put(String, double) instead

qupath.lib.measurements.MeasurementList.getMeasurementValue(String)	since v0.4.0; use MeasurementList.get(String) instead
qupath.lib.measurements.MeasurementList.putMeasurement(String, double)	since v0.4.0; replaced by MeasurementList.put(String, double)

qupath.lib.objects.hierarchy.PathObjectHierarchy.addPathObjectBelowParent(PathObject, PathObject, boolean)	since v0.4.0; use PathObjectHierarchy.addObjectBelowParent(PathObject, PathObject, boolean)
qupath.lib.objects.hierarchy.PathObjectHierarchy.addPathObjectListener(PathObjectHierarchyListener)	since v0.4.0 (the name was confusing because it wasn't intended primarily to listen to changes within individual PathObjects)

qupath.lib.scripting.QP.buildServer(String, Class<T>, String...)	In the usual case where BufferedImage is the class, use QP.buildServer(String, String...) instead because it handles default args.
