Re: [Gretl-users] gretl icon view changes
Dear Allin
I tested the new Windows snapshot. Automatically opening icon views is
a very good function and convenient. Thanks.
I have some additional questions about icon view.
1. Double-byte (Chinese) characters might be improperly shown for the
names of objects in the icon view.
I testes several situations and found that for example,
if the name is "123456789XX" where XX is Chinese characters, then
it is correctly shown.
but if the name is "1234567890XX" where XX is Chinese characters,
then it is NOT correctly shown.
2. After adding a scalar, how can I delete the scalar via GUI only?
It seems any kind of objects in icon view can possibly be deleted
except scalars.
Best regards
Yi-Nung

Hello all,
A brief note about one change in CVS and the Windows snapshot. I
noticed that some actions that add icons to the "icon view" were
not giving the user any feedback. E.g., main window, "/Add/Define
matrix..." A matrix is defined OK but the user might reasonably
wonder, "Where is it?". Or you run a script that adds some graphs
or models as icons via the "objectname <- command" mechanism, but
you don't see the icons.
So I've now made it that the econ view pops open automatically
when I guess people might want to see it. If you don't like
this behavior you can turn it off, by unchecking the box
"Show icon view automatically" under /Preferences.
