Version 19 Release Notes

Important note: When installing a new build, do not uninstall the previous build. The new build will replace the previous build and will not require reactivation.

Version 19.3.02 posted February 8, 2022

New features:

1. Trellis plots for summarizing the relationship between 3 numeric variables (Z vs X and Y) by 1 or 2 conditioning variables (bubble charts, regression fits and nonparametric smoothing).
2. Alternative choice of data input structure for crosstabulation where levels are defined by multiple data columns.

Corrections:

1. Fixed Y-axis scaling dialog box for trellis plots.
2. Changed Recode Data behavior to differentiate between uppercase and lowercase.

Version 19.3.01 posted January 20, 2022

New features:

1. Trellis plots for summarizing numeric data by 1 or 2 conditioning variables (multiple boxplots, histograms and normal probability plots).
2. Trellis plots for summarizing categorical data by 1 or 2 conditioning variables (multiple barcharts, piecharts and donut charts).
3. Trellis plots for summarizing the relationship between 2 numeric variables by 1 or 2 conditioning variables (multiple smoothed scatterplots and regression lines).
4. Academic site license build changed to make it easier to run on virtual machines.

Corrections:

1. Fixed saved labels in Crosstabulation for data columns that have optional value labels.
2. Enabled conversion of character labels to dates in DataBook.
3. Updated location of R libraries required for Analysis of Arbitrarily Censored Data and for Decision Forests.

Version 19.2.02 posted September 13, 2021

New features:

1. Increased factor limit for extreme vertices mixture designs to 7.
2. Increased variable limit in multivariate normal random number generator to 16.
3. Added confidence limits for optimized response value in DOE procedures.
4. Added support for weighting observations in Support Vector Machines.
5. Added support for value labels in Quantile Regression.

Corrections:

1. Fixed default scaling in some residual plots.
2. Fixed crash when computing Studentized residuals if all but 1 value fell perfectly on a straight line.
