A new option to calculate the baseline excluding outliers is added.
It will calculate the median and standard deviation of a signal in the selected range considering only the 25-75% values, excluding big and small outliers. This might be important when calculating the VETO peaks, for example, as it uses the BaseLine (+ input threshold) to exclude small peaks.
If there are peaks (or negative regions) in the interval to calculate the sigma they will lead to a biased BaseLine. If there are many peaks, for example, the calculated BaseLine will be biased to bigger values and might eliminate clear peaks.
By calculating the BaseLine without the outliers (the peaks will be in the >75% region) the calculated value will be more precise.
