DPlot in Windows 7 cannot open this file

Post by dcl9000 »

Hi!

I have a simple two-column data file like this:

/sm OFF
/sc ON
/sd OFF
/td "xy"

1351.0 -65.105775
1351.35 -65.042302
1351.7 -64.955354
1352.05 -64.981671
1352.4 -65.012926
1352.75 -64.88401
1353.1 -64.843886
1353.45 -64.893882
1353.8 -64.841875
1354.15 -64.665983
1354.5 -64.677306
1354.85 -64.647132
1355.2 -64.537047
1355.55 -64.516347
1355.9 -64.542003
1356.25 -64.490974
1356.6 -64.411959
1356.95 -64.408319
1357.3 -64.350741
1357.65 -64.18023
1358.0 -64.145595
1358.35 -64.238076
1358.7 -64.184178
1359.05 -64.145106
1359.4 -64.156128
1359.75 -64.130453
1360.1 -64.002173
1360.45 -63.980214
1360.8 -63.983984
1361.15 -63.853489
1361.5 -63.802776
1361.85 -63.828172
1362.2 -63.761598
1362.55 -63.670733

The file is saved as a text file and I have no problem opening it with DPlot in Windows XP. However, when I try to open it in another machine under Windows 7. DPlot always fails and end up with a "not responding" message. My DPlot version is 2.3.2.3. Does anyone see this problem?

Thanks!

I don't have a problem with it on 64-bit Windows 7. But it might shed a clue if you'll send me the file at support@dplot.com.

My apologies for the runaround, and thanks for your file. Version 2.3.2.3 does indeed have a problem with that file, so it isn't just you. I've sent the link for the latest version, which opens your file as expected. If you have any other problems please let me know.

This problem is fixed in the newer version of DPlot (2.3.2.6) as you said. Thanks a lot!
