Caroline Malin-mayor

Contributed to napari by developing user-controlled multiscale rendering features and improving data stability in core layers. Addressed a critical bug by refactoring the Labels layer’s data setter to wrap multiscale data in a MultiScaleData object, aligning its behavior with the Image layer and preventing crashes from AttributeErrors. Built a manual resolution level lock for multiscale Image and Label layers, adding both a UI widget and API for programmatic control, which enhanced navigation speed and user experience. Work included comprehensive documentation and unit tests, leveraging Python and Markdown to ensure maintainability, reliability, and clear communication of new layer control capabilities.

May 2026 focused on delivering user-controlled multiscale rendering improvements and strengthening documentation/tests across napari repositories. Key outcomes include a new manual resolution level lock for multiscale layers (2D/3D), enabling faster navigation and lower-resolution previews when zoomed in; accompanying UI widget and API exposure for programmatic control; and documentation updates tying rendering scale controls to the underlying feature. The effort enhances performance, usability, and maintainability by validating with tests and examples.

In Apr 2026, delivered a robust bug fix for multiscale data handling in napari's Labels layer, aligning its behavior with the Image layer to improve stability for multiscale workflows. Implemented by wrapping multiscale data in a MultiScaleData object in the data setter, preventing AttributeError and crashes when users assign multiscale data. The change is captured in commit 84f1412b243f65b5639ad29197dca6b9709bd356 and references PR #8922, with testing context linked to PR #8917.
