Miscellaneous

 

Known Issues in Beta3

  1. Axis Break in 3D graph not working
  2. File: Open Sample Projects: 91TutorialData.opj. Slow to open because there are many Results Log in the opj. User doesn't need to use this opj.
  3. Minor Tick Labels control: Show at Specified Indices Only. Hint is wrong. Major ticks is counted as well so if u want labels to show at 1st and 4th minor ticks, enter 2 5 in the edit box. But if you click OK to close the dialog and reopen again, the edit box is gone.

  • No labels
