- Only for non group workspaces, the input validation of UseManualScaleFactors should check if ManualScaleFactors are given. For groups, period scaling will be performed
- m_scaleFactorFromPeriod can be initialised by valid and default value
- Enable missing point data test

Refs #22197

- For executing doStitch1D for GroupWorkspaces, the input vector of matrix workspaces was wrongly setup, they all contain the data from corresponding spectra
- Adapted history tests, they are modified since no processGroups. This reveals the recursive call of Stitch1DMany
- doxygen
- emplace_back

Refs #22197

Refs #22197

This fixes the reported problem

- this checks dx values
- replace push_back by emplace_back
- cannot use
  m_inputWSMatrix[i].push_back(inputMatrix); for groups
  and
  m_inputWSMatrix[0].push_back(inputMatrix);
  but needed instead use column since boost shared pointer shortcomings?
- description difficult to understand:
      // Each 'row' are the workspaces belonging to a specific group
      // Each 'column' are the workspaces belonging to a specific period
      // Each 'row' are the workspaces belonging to a specific period
      // GroupWorkspaces
      // Each 'column' are the workspaces belonging to a specific group
   found in same implementation for same matrix, deleted that

Disabled test_two_groups_with_three_workspaces_scale_factor_from_period since failing (periodscalefactors seem wrong), needs fix

Removed processGroups checkGroups, modified history -> may need to be reinserted

Refs #22197

I conclude that the recursive call (Stitch1DMany calls itself) does not work with processGroups: some output from gdb

- Be more general with regard to input workspaces (e.g. point data)
- Make tooltips readable in GUI
- Rename 1, 2 to first and second and explain RHS abbreviation
- Added Rebin to seeAlso algorithms list? Since mentioned in the properties for format
- Toggled the RebinParamsValidator to true (can be empty for point data)

- not passing tests stay uncommented at the moment

Since the indexing is into the full array, use the full array

It was corrupting the values in the workspace and nothing was
getting set correctly. Refs #22286

Refs #22383

- Doxygen updated (throws)
- Templated storeWS

Running ConjoinXRunsTest for testTableInputWorkspaceInGroupThrows:
ConjoinXRuns-[Warning] Invalid value for InputWorkspaces: Workspace table is not a MatrixWorkspace

showing the need to check !ws and + input + works (ll 128,130 in ConjoinXRuns.cpp)

Refs #22383

Added CalculateCarpenterSampleCorrection.
Replaced MultipleScatteringCylinderAbsorption -> CarpenterSampleCorrection.
Refactored CarpenterSampleCorrection to use CalculateCarpenterSampleCorrection.

Some options were in place as maybe they'll be eventually needed.
This removes those and continues the cleanup. Refs #22286

RunCombinationHelper checks, if the ws is a GroupWorkspace or else a MatrixWorkspace. Workspaces of the group were not checked and need to be checked during validation

Refs #22383

Without catching the error, MantidPlot freezes forever for this case

Refs #22383

- Checked if MatrixWorkspace now done in unWrapGroups
- Cannot get the name if pointer is invalid in ConjoinXRuns
- Added unit test in RunCombinationHelperTest

Refs #22383

- throwing is expensive

- unWrapGroups is used in
-> MergeRuns
-> ConjoinXRuns
-> SumOverlappingTubes

There, the error can be catched.
