(In another posting panel_pd was discussed and that possibly a new accessor would be good. That's still a useful thing to pursue and shouldn't be forgotten.) Here's a one-line patch that hopefully achieves nothing else than to clarify to the user in a panel context what the numbers at the bottom of the main window mean. I would find that useful, even though it doesn't contain any further information about the time dimension yet. (And doesn't address Artur's initial idea of getting further time period information into plots.) diff --git a/gui/menustate.c b/gui/menustate.c index c3cbf5670..933737370 100644 --- a/gui/menustate.c +++ b/gui/menustate.c @@ -1055,7 +1055,7 @@ void set_sample_label (DATASET *dset)         ntolabel(t1str, dset->t1, dset);         ntolabel(t2str, dset->t2, dset); -       sprintf(tmp, _("%s; sample %s - %s"), _(pdstr), t1str, t2str); +       sprintf(tmp, _("%s (unit:period); sample %s - %s"), _(pdstr), t1str, t2str);         gtk_label_set_text(GTK_LABEL(mdata->status), tmp);      } else {         char t1str[OBSLEN], t2str[OBSLEN]; OK to apply? I have tested in a previous incarnation, can test again, but in any case this cannot do too much harm I guess.
