Error with point labels

Post by dudley »

Create a graph and add point labels. If a point is deleted using edit data or delete points in a box, Dplot will not properly adjust the labels.

For example, create a plot with the following data:

1,1,One
2,2,Two
3,3,Three

Edit the data to remove point 2,2 and the "Two" label will jump to point 3,3.

Using the "Label amplitude only" option and the deleting many points will result in a very incorrect plot.

Improved but still not quite right

Hello David,

I can see that version 2.2.2 improved this, but it still fails when using "Delete Points in Box". Using the "Edit Data" to remove points works.

Example:

Plot the following data and use "Delete Points in Box" to remove points 3,3 and 4,4. The labels will not move properly.

1,1,one
2,2,two
20,20,twenty
3,3,three
4,4,four
10,10,ten
8,8,eight

Thanks for the effort on this.

Fixed in today's 2.2.2.3 update. Mailing list mail is going out as I type this. You can also get the update with "Check for Updates" on the Help menu.

Thanks again for pointing out the problem.
