continued issues with Act2 and scatter data

[richW]

Hi,

I have succeeded in following Tom's recommendations to plot 30 or 40 data points from a .gss file onto an Act2 diagram, but now I'm trying it with a big file- 311 samples. nothing plots and i get the following error message:

The instruction at "0x7c910a19" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read".

Once again, I can't upload the .gss file because I get the error message, "You aren't permitted to upload this kind of data file."

any insight would be appreciated.

thanks,

Rich

Hi, Tom (or whomever),

I converted the .gss file to .txt (tab-delimited) and that will upload. My Act2 commands are as follows:

Act2> diagram Al+++ on Al+++ vs pH

Act2> x 2 9; y -20 0

Act2> go

then in the plot view of Act2, I go to open>scatter data>test and that's when I get the error message.

thanks,

rich

Hi Rich:

I've just configured .GSS as an allowable attachment file type on the forum. Can you try your upload once again?

If unsuccesful, just email it to me.

Also, be sure to include the Act2 file that you are trying to plot scatter data points on...

Tom

Hi Rich:

Files received, and problem duplicated. I'll let you know when we figure this out...

Rich:

As a follow-up, this appears to be a bug tied to the number of samples in the GSS dataset, as the scatter points plot fine when I reduce the GSS dataset that you provided.

We'll get this address in the next patch, GWB 8.0.10.

Hi, Tom,

Thanks, I suspected this might be the case. i was playing around with the data last week and was able to get all the points to plot if I broke the dataset into 4 or 5 smaller pieces. So I was reasonably sure that there wasn't a specific problem with any one of the data points. for now, do you know the limit of points i can have without triggering problems?

Hi Rich:

No, I haven't figured out what the data limit is on this yet. If I have a few spare minutes, I'll try to bracket this a bit more.
