Generate Menu - 2.0.2.1

[jsc]

David,
At the bottom of the Generate menu, there are two entries for "More Curve Fits". The first one seems to give you the dialog for specifying curves. The second seems to compute an average of the curve (I happened to have only 1 - XY pair, and it immediately drew a line on the plot that looked like the average. (Or the baseline?)

Also, I noticed that the help text that is supposed to show up in the status bar does not seem to display correctly for the three items below the separator bar.

Sounds like something got badly trashed. I can see how this might happen if you renamed an old curvefit.dll to some other name and left the renamed plugin in \plugins\generate, but... it would still be a curve fitting plugin, not an averaging gizmo. The only two "Generate" plugins distributed with DPlot are labeled "Baseline Shift" (bshift.dll) and "More curve fits" (curvefit.dll). Look in the \plugins\generate folder below DPlot and see what's there.

Also, I noticed that the help text that is supposed to show up in the status bar does not seem to display correctly for the three items below the separator bar.

Good point. That will require an additional function in the plugins, but it is an easy fix.

Yes, I think you caught me. I might have dumped a beta curvefit.dll that I found here in the program directory. I thought I renamed the extension to something else on the old one, however. I'll look tomorrow.

Thanks.
