129 agu2008-20081214

  1. http://www.autoplot.org/jnlp/agu2008-20081214
  2. stable branch contains many pre-agu bugfixes.
  3. support for fractional day of year in ascii tables.
  4. ignore cadence inserts a large value for the cadence into the dataset so that time series is connected.

Known Bugs:

  1. completions can result in extra vap in URI. Remove extra vap.
  2. intermittent settings carry over after data source switch, causing suboptimal autoranging. Reload data to work-around.
  3. in rare cases, autolayout can cause axes to oscillate. Resize canvas to work-around.
  4. improved cadence-guessing still fails in some cases. use "ignore cadence"
  5. some completions don't fire "plot it" event. Press green play button when application is idle after completion.
  6. plot fails to repaint after maximize on Windows. Slightly adjust axis setting to trigger repaint.
