Analysis
General
JIRA | SUMMARY | DESCRIPTION | DETAILS |
|---|---|---|---|
No lock in source graph if using Dynamic input range | No lock on source graph if using Dynamic input range and output to inputX newY. | New bug in Origin 2020b. If using Dynamic input range and output to inputX newY, fail to generate analysis lock on the source graph. | |
Do not modify output designation if column exists | Output designation not modified if column exists. Meaning: After recalculation, column designations should not be changed. | After recalculation, column designation should not be changed. E.g. for some analysis, the output X is set as <input>, so only Y is output to new column. When change source data, recalculation is triggered. But column designation is changed such as column is set as X, etc. Fixed in Origin 2021 so column designation will not be changed by default. Set @SDN=0 to restore old behavior. | |
