Changes in version 0.6-13, 23 Apr 2010 - improved Base Settings tab for regular fractional factorials to allow specification of an extra catalogue without having to specify the design itself - fourth radio button for catlg only - design radio button always also displays catalogue entry box, which is now a combobox - allowed loading of special further design catalogues for regular fractional factorials from package FrF2.catlg128, if installed - added possibility to display design.info attribute Bug fixes: - fixed command for selection of specific catalogue (for generating regular fractional factorials) and added dependence on new version of FrF2, because catalogue selection did not work properly in earlier versions - corrected an instruction in Menu.import.Rd (regarding loading of R workspace) Changes in version 0.6-12, 03 Apr 2010 bug fix: added requirement for DoE.base version 0.10 (new design inspection for creation of general orthogonal arrays did not work for older versions) Changes in version 0.6-11, 26 Mar 2010 - updated resolution information to include newly implemented designs from packages FrF2 and DoE.base (and included bug fix to previous version that was incomplete regarding 64 run designs) - updated general orthogonal arrays: - added automatic optimization - added button for displaying available designs - updated "Inspect design" menu: - all menu items work for active design only - summary only does the printed summary itself - plot and table become menu items themselves, with the added possibility of selecting a subset of factors only - bug fix: creation of general orthogonal arrays did not work for most recent version of package DoE.base Changes in version 0.6-10, 03 Jan 2010 - added possibility for compromise designs to estimable menu for regular fractional factorials - Bugfix: error message for wrong response specigication in add response menu Changes in version 0.6-9, 18 Dec 2009 Created comfort for analysing designs with several response variables: - added response selection to the currently available analysis menus - removed design selection from linear model menu; this menu now always refers to the design in the active dataset, like the other analysis menus Changes in version 0.6-8, 10 Dec 2009 - added menu for permanently removing columns from the design - added menu for modifying factor contrasts - bug fix: help button for response selection menu now points to the correct help file Changes in version 0.6-7, 21 Nov 2009 - improved help for manually incorporating blocks into designs with estimable 2-factor interactions - bug fix: directory selection did not work on export tabs of design creation menus Changes in version 0.6-6, 25 Oct 2009 - added help button to "Estimable Model" tab for regular 2-level fractional factorials Changes in version 0.6-5, 25 Oct 2009 - a few changes to help files - made several menus more comfortable: - keep decimal settings between menus and calls in menus (except for export sub menus of larger menus) - allow change of working directory in import, export and add response menu - keep further settings in export, import and add response menus, especially in case of errors, so that corrections can be made more comfortably - small layout changes to Estimable Model tab for regular 2-level fractional factorials - bug fix: maximum time for searching for designs with specified 2fis not aliased with each other or with main effects (Estimable Model tab for regular 2-level fractional factorials) was not properly implemented (search was always 60 seconds); - improvement for this situation: indication that search is in progress in the output window Changes in version 0.6, 18 Oct 2009 - changed strategy for error messages when generating designs (affects all design generating and design modifying menus): After pressing OK with options that lead to an error, instead of closing the menu and printing a warning in the messages log, the menu is re-opened with an error message in the messages log. Also, the offending command is not printed into the script and output window, but into the messages log only. - bug fix: wrong creator class for ccd designs (menu.designlhs instead of menu.designccd) - bug fix: in case of an error message that re-opens the dialog, messages are suppressed - bug fix: for Menu.wide, re-opening the menu did not work - bug fix: disabled "Quantitative" separator line from Create Design menu - bug fix: disabled transformation element on aggregate.design menu, which does not work yet - bug fix: changed default formula for models with center points to not add a dummy for the center points (dummy was not found); eventually, there will be an option for including a dummy ...
