thank you and suggestion

Post by stats2019 »

Hi,

back with Jamovi (and Jasp), I want to thank you for implementing the syntax view.
I think this is a major advantage over jasp.

On https://www.jamovi.org/user-manual.html you have an animation, that one can simply copy the code to R. For "new" users (but who is new/unexperiend to R ;-) ) it might not work as demonstrated there.
Maybe add the hint, that one needs to add the jmv package and of course might need to adjust the data frame name.
I also noticed, that jamovi can work with columnnames with special characters (german umlauts like ÖÄÜ, but also ?). When copying the R code from an analysis, this will break the R code (at least for me, when I tried to insert it into Rkward.

Just a thought, that this extra explanation might help some other people.

Please continue the great work of yours. Thanks again
Olaf

hey,

special characters *should* work, but there is a lot of inconsistency with how R handles international characters (but from what i was reading, it *sounds* like some of these issues might be solved in R4). i'm guessing you're on windows? it's not usually a problem on the other platforms.

cheers

Hi,
yes, Windows.
No big problem (for me), but a nuisance.
