Dear morphometricians
I posted a new version (1.00j) of the MorphoJ program that includes two
updates.
The first, which went into version 1.00i, is a bug fix that corrects a
mistake in the calculation of the P-value for the T-square test that is
computed with Discriminant Function analyses. The faulty calculation
produced P-values that were too large (overly conservative) for
relatively small samples.
Thanks to Andrea Cardini for spotting the problem.
The second update (in version 1.00j) concerns the inner workings of the
program, how project files are read. The fix eliminates (I hope!) the
problem that the project tree for larger projects was sometimes messed
up. It will also make it simpler for me to add further types of
analyses. There should be no difference in the functioning of the
program between versions 1.00i and 1.00j.
Moreover, Mauro Marcinkevicius alerted me to the fact that the larger
installer files, as they are distributed since version 1.00h (i.e.,
including a copy of the documentation), can produce problems because
some internet providers appear to enforce a limit on file sizes.
Accordingly, I have started distributing a web installer for each of the
suported platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux/Unix). The web installer will
download the files necessary for the installation in three separate
chunks. The downloaded files are therefore smaller, but the web
installer can only be used for computers that are connected to the web
at the time of installation.
Best wishes,
Chris
