    You're probably trying to plot a categorical variable (text values). Try a variable with numbers and iNZight should draw a graph.

    Hi, is this a known OSX issue? Info is second hand and all I have is the screenshot right now, can get more info if needed.

    @JJJollyjim that's not exactly one I've seen before; few reasons why that might have happened. Did you install using the DMG (which contains GTK, XQuartz, R, and iNZightVIT)?

    Hi I'm trying to use the maps function, but the Latitude and Longitude drop down menus are blank. Is it me being a bit thick or should I reinstall??Thanks Val
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    @Tigermcewan_twitter what data set are you using? iNZight only shows numeric variables in the drop down, so if there aren't any of those they won't show up (make sure the actual lat/lon values aren't secretly character!). Try the example NZ Quakes data set - if that works, it'll be related to your data; if it doesn't, then yeah you might need to reinstall.

    hello guys, im trying to install inzight into my macbook
    i had to install GTK 2.24.17-X11 however its still not working.. when i open the software R opens
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    @Jonnymban_twitter Make sure you've installed XQuartz (https://www.xquartz.org/) and restarted your computer. When you start iNZight, you should get R opening up, followed by XQuartz (an X in the dock) - the first time it'll take a few minutes to install the dependencies, then iNZight should launch.

    I have chemical data with stdev for each measurement. Can I plot error bars using this data in inzight?
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    Unfortunately no. iNZight doesn't have any way of using pre-calculated errors.
    Elizabeth D. Swanner
    @betsyswanner_twitter
    Thank you for making this. It is really handy.
    I would like to also learn how to use R, but the installed copy won't let me change WD. Should I install another R for non-iNZight use?
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    Strange ... you should be able to change unless it's installed somewhere that limits it's access permissions. You can safely install another copy of R though.

    Hello! I'm new using iNZight and I have a doubt according to print plot for using outside iNZight software,

    Is there any way to change the font?

    Concretely, I would like to add one of the plots I have made in an article written in Times New Roman and I don't find how to change my plot's axex font.

    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    @VilaCMarta_twitter Hi - currently iNZightPlot() doesn't allow you to change the font. However, I've created an issue on Github (iNZightVIT/iNZightPlots#37) and I'll try get around to implementing that in the near future. (If you have github, you can subscribe to notifications about the issue on the right and get notified when I get around to implementing it!).

    Hi there, I just tried to install iNZight on my osx 10.12.6 system and I get an error like this:
    Error: file ‘/var/folders/fz/drgkmh953v59cqk75s9msqfh0000gn/T//RtmpaCYpuy/downloaded_packages/sp_1.2-6.tgz’ is not an OS X binary package
    Is there anyway to fix that?
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    @terryjiang1996 can't say I've seen that one before ... potentially a corrupt download, so try deleting the iNZightVIT app folder from Applications and download a new copy from here: https://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~wild/iNZight/getinzight.php?os=mac&v=self
    terryjiang1996
    @terryjiang1996
    @tmelliott I tried and this error came out again. Looks like replacing or deleting the file it points out to a right one won't help either.
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    @terryjiang1996 What R version are you running? iNZight only runs on Mac with R 3.2.
    terryjiang1996
    @terryjiang1996
    @tmelliott It's 3.2.4
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    @terryjiang1996 Potentially a corrupt file, or likewise. Try typing the following into the R Console: install.packages("sp", type = "source")
    terryjiang1996
    @terryjiang1996
    @tmelliott The same error again.

    @tmelliott tar:

    Warning message:

    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    Alright, looking at the CRAN page for the troublesome package, it looks like the mac binaries aren't up to date, and your system is getting confused as to which to download.
    1. download to your Downloads folder the OS X binary for the previous version: https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/el-capitan/contrib/3.4/sp_1.2-5.tgz
    2. in R, run: install.packages('~/Downloads/sp_1.2-5.tgz', repos = NULL)
    3. fingers crossed that is more successful
      NOTE: I don't have access to a Mac right now, so I can't confirm those commands work - just let me know what errors etc you get (feel free to email tom.elliott@stat.auckland.ac.nz if you find that easier). Also, depending what part of iNZight you need, it might be easier to use iNZight Lite.
    terryjiang1996
    @terryjiang1996
    @tmelliott Alright, the error changed into this:
    tar: Unrecognized archive format
    tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.
    Error: file ‘/var/folders/fz/drgkmh953v59cqk75s9msqfh0000gn/T//RtmpLoFOyX/downloaded_packages/gWidgets2RGtk2_1.0-7.tgz’ is not an OS X binary package

    I just installed a visual windows 7 on my mac and the windows version works fine, perhaps I should just give up that mac version.
    Thanks for helping.
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    @terryjiang1996 seems there's something odd going on somewhere; unsure why your R isn't fetching the correct files. If VM is working for you, stick with that.
    terryjiang1996
    @terryjiang1996
    @tmelliott I get the gWidgets2RGtk2_1.0-5-2.tgz from stat.auckland.ac.nz manually and that works! XD
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    Ah awesome - I was worried it was going to become a game of manually-download-all-of-the-packages-one-by-one, but just the two isn't too much work. Get in touch if you run into any problems.

    Hello, does anyone know how to change the percentage of confidence interval from 95% to 99% for calculating the p-value in t-test by using iNZight. thanks
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    @yangminp not yet possible, but I've added it to my to-do list (iNZightVIT/iNZight#74).

    Hi there, I am a year 13 student doing stats at the moment with the newest version of iNZsight. I am not sure how to do bootstrapping on the newest version of iNZight and I was hoping someone here could help me.
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    When you install iNZight you should get two different programs: iNZight and VIT - the VIT one does all the bootstrapping, so open that instead of iNZight.
    Wackycatgun
    @Wackycatgun
    haha thank you, so simple

    Hi, is anyone able to tell me where I can find the details of the software license for iNZight - just trying to certify that we are okay to use this in our organisation
    joel-williams

    apologies - have found it. Cheers.

    Hi there, I am trying to amend a multiple response plot
    How do I do this?

    I installed Inzight on my window system but I could locate. No shortcut created. I need your help please.
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    @Ikueson_twitter Strange, I haven't been aware of any issues with the shortcuts before! Perhaps a first step is to try re-installing and take note of the install location (the default is Documents/iNZightVIT).

    @Jaxxxon
    Hi! Is there a way to save reordered categorical variables so I can use them again later for further work? They always seem to revert to alphabetical.
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    @Jaxxxon If you mean after closing iNZight, the only way is to save the data in Rdata format - see this entry in our FAQ.

    Hi all, I like that iNZight provides the function of showing R scripts! Could users change the generated R scripts as a way of tweaking visualizations? Thanks.
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    Hi @yanecnu_twitter - glad you like it! We don't (yet) allow editing the R script, but we've just released a new version of iNZight (4.0) which has a new feature showing the code for the current plot at the bottom of the window (head to FIle > Preferences to turn this on). It's currently limited to modifying our in-house inzplot() function, but it does let you edit the code generated by iNZight, run it, and save it to the R script.
    Shiyan Jiang
    @yanecnu_twitter
    This is cool! Thanks, Tom. May I ask whether I can use it in inzight lite?
    Tom Elliott
    @tmelliott
    I don't think Lite has been updated with this new functionality yet, but it is being worked on. Not ETA at this stage I'm sorry!
