Known problems:

  • 020514. plot colors look odd (all white)
    We're working on a solution for this.   In the meantime, the plot options can be adjusted by clicking on the 'Modify plot' link at the lower left of the plot window. Then select 'Get Data (with options)' button from the new 'Settings' window. You don't actually change anything, just request a 'modified plot'. The colors, scales, etc. magically fix themselves! This little trick will make most plots look better.
  • 020528. waterfall plots no longer return an error
