Description

The “Add new parameters” and “Save (Create a new node) As” tabs are missing in scripted SVB nodes.

PROBLEM RECAP:

1. Open example workspace Example_HelloWorld.sdm in Statistica (locate at C:\Program Files\Statistica\Statistica 13\Examples\Workspaces\)

2. Double click on the “Hello_World” SVB node, “Edit Parameter” dialog appears

The “Add new parameters…” tab and “Save (Create a new node) As...” tab are not displayed at the bottom of the “Edit parameter” dialog.

Issue/Introduction

“Add new parameters” and “Save (Create a new node) As” tabs are missing in scripted SVB nodes

Environment

Windows

Resolution

This is the new node UI designed for versions 13.0 and higher with “Add new parameters…” tab and “Save (Create a new node) As...” tab absent. One can revert back to the old SVB node style dialog to have the two tabs back by following steps.

1. Go to Statistica "Home | Options"

2. In the Options dialog, go to "Documents | Workspaces", uncheck the option "Use modern UI for editing scripted nodes". Click OK.

3. Go back to the workspace and double click on the "Hello World" SVB node. The two tabs  “Add new parameters…” and “Save (Create a new node) As...” appears at the bottom of the "Edit parameters" dialog. 



4. One can switch between the new node style and the old node style by checking and unchecking the workspace option "Use modern UI for editing scripted nodes".
