Requests

Here's what I would really like to see added to Analytica:

• When learning to use Analytica, I often have to go to the manual, go to the index at the end, look at the page number for the command I want to know about, then get to that page in the manual (which is not the same page as that page in Adobe Reader). I would like it if there was a command reference that had links for all the commands to the appropriate manual sections. **

Good suggestion: In the meantime, you may find this useful. Open the PDF User Guide and show the "Function list" page (After "Appendices"). This lists all functions organized by functional groups (also control constructs, system variables, object classes, and parameter qualifiers). Click on any item to jump to the place in the User Guide that explains it. (Alex Graham)

• I would like to see a function that can do bootstrap estimates of variance for use with a small sample. I can't seem to find a way of doing that in Analytica. *

• Possibility to save models as image-files (PNG etc.): It is possible to save graphs as image-files but not views from models. Now we need to take a screenshot first and then convert it into image-file before we can add it to web-documents. ** --Jvillman 22:39, 27 June 2007 (PDT)

• An Undo History function, or at least the possibility of undoing more than just the most recent edit (as it seems to be at present). ** Jgrellier 01:43, 26 November 2007 (PST)
