There is a bug in NExS where sometimes when I plot a graph, I get a whole bunch of tic mark labels along the X or Y axis. Can this be fixed?
The problem is that you have inadvertently entered some of your numeric data as text. When NExS finds text values in a data set, it assumes that the data are labels. NExS allows strings of digits to be entered into a cell as a label, so it is not always easy to tell by inspection whether a cell’s data type is numeric or string. You can always tell by looking at the cell’s contents on the edit line, however. Numeric cells will always have a leading equal sign (=) on the edit line, and cells containing labels will not. If you have a large dataset and suspect that some of the values may have been entered as labels rather than numbers, you can use the “Search -> Find” dialog to quickly locate the problem cells.
