Dear all,
Allin's recent post on changes to the icon views has reminded me to report the
following bug (or annoying behaviour, anyway).
I'm working on a project that involves running about 25 regressions and testing each
for a structural break with QLR. After discovering that I couldn't do this in a loop
(wish list item), I thought "ok, icon view." Everything went fine, until I
copied my session to my usb drive, went home, and opened it up on my other computer. All
the QLR tests reported "structural break at date (null)" instead of the actual
dates (which were there previously).
Has anyone else experienced this?
Best,
Peter Summers

Hmm, there's no real reason that should be disallowed in a
loop (if we disable the accompanying graph). I'll look into it.

I can replicate that bug -- should have it fixed soon.

That's now enabled in CVS and snapshot.

Wow -- on a Sunday afternoon no less. Allin, you truly rock!

I should mention: I believe the date parameter for the QLR test
was being saved OK in the session file, it just wasn't being read
back. So if you go back and read those files now, you should be
OK.

haha! Don't worry, I won't tell her.

I have 2 versions of the QLR test in my session files -- the first that was generated on
my desktop, the second when I re-ran them on my laptop. I downloaded the new snapshot
& opened the session (on my laptop). The second test (laptop-generated) now shows the
dates, but the first still says null.
