My sample size is 147 not either 9 or 7 in any case. I agree that the
computer displays these numbers! don't know why?

Nevertheless, in this analysis the number of specimens (dependent shape
variable) is 147, obviously, with the equal number of observations for each
independent variables (here, we used two factors ind$Stages and ind$Location
).

 It is interesting to note that I am getting good results using single
factor Manova; dependent shape variable over, either  ind$stages or
ind$location, at a given time,  though with/without interactions as well. Even,
it works fine with more factors if I model without any effect of
interaction, and the results are given below

> Paintgeo147, iter = 9999, RRPP = FALSE, print.progress = FALSE, int.first = 
> FALSE)

> Paint3factor



Call:

procD.lm(f1 = coords ~ Csize + ind$Stages + ind$Location, iter = 9999,

    RRPP = FALSE, int.first = FALSE, data = Paintgeo147,
print.progress = FALSE)

The main issue, here, is that somehow I don’t know how to use the proper
command to quantify effects of interaction, say for example ind$Stages:
ind$Location, Csize: ind$Stages, Csize: ind$Locations... etc. ????

Thanks for spending your time and effort!

Looking forward

Truly
