Re: [Scilab-users] Some inconsistency during installation o 6.1

 Hello Frederico,

Thank you for your posiitve feedback on 6.1 display improvements. I  
think you are the only user who did so on the ML.


Concerning the problem of rationals display, which is done in  
%r_p.sci,  for the moment it is impossible to respect the actual  
mode() value, because overloads are systematically evaluated with  
mode() == -1. This a current limitation of overlading mechanism and  
fixing it is doable but not trivial (at least from my point of view).


Best,

S.

Quoting Federico Miyara :


Dear all,

I've just installed version 6.1. When installing it there is a  
button "About modules...". Clicking on it opens the following link  
in the browser:  


https://wiki.scilab.org/howto/install/windows[1]

However, it refers to Scilab 5.5.2, not even 6.0.2, so may be this  
already happened for the preceding versions. It is not important,  
but considering that the link is there, it should point to an  
updated link.


I didn't test it too much yet, but the new really compact version of  
mode(1) is most welcome, especially for those of us who use  
small-screen laptops. Also welcome is the single-line presentation  
of polynomials, with in-line exponents using superscripts.
However, full compactness doesn't seem to work with rationals, since  
a blank line is still appearing before the result, for instance,


--> q = (1-%s)/(1+%s^2)
 q  =
 
   1 -s  
   - 
   1 +s²

while with polynomials it works fine:

--> q = 1+%s^2
 q  =
  1 +s²

Regards,

Federico Miyara
