DPlot

I have a text data file (filename data1.txt) contains these values:

X(nm) Y1(uW)
1.2 1.4
2.6 4
3.9 16.2
5.7 23.5

When this data file is placed in a remote network folder "\\Epsilon\Testing\temp\Fod2.0\try_DC&IV_K1", DPlot can open/plot it and drag-and-drop works just fine. However, if this remote network folder is re-named to "\\Epsilon\Testing\temp\Fod2.0\try_DC+IV_K1", DPlot cannot open or plot the data anymore. The error message says "File not found".

Somehow, DPlot doesn't like a "+" sign in the name of a remote network folder. This problem doesn't exist if the data file is on a local folder even with a "+" sign.

My DPlot version is 2.3.3.5.

Could you please fix this bug? Thanks!

My guess is you can open this file using File>Open, right?

The problem with interpreting this correctly on the command line or by right-clicking the file is that DPlot interprets the + as a separator between multiple files. "dplot.exe ex01.grf+ex02.grf", for example, opens both ex01.grf and ex02.grf - nothing to do with it being a network drive. Off the top of my head I can't think of a good way to do what you want without breaking it for others, but I'll give it some thought.

You're right! It works only when I manually open the file using File>Open.

But, again, if the same data folder (with a + sign in the folder name) is placed in a local drive, everything (drag&drop, double click...) works perfectly.

You're right, and I have no explanation for that. If anything I'd consider this to be the bug.
