Dear Don,

maybe the cause of your problem with importing your txt file is de format in which your txt file is put together.
Normally the first lines shout state:

[individuals]
"put number of individuals here"
[landmarks]
"put number of landmarks you use here"
[dimensions]
"put number of dimensions measured here"
[names]
"put names of individuals here, for example"
1
2
3
4
[rawpoints]

Hopefully this helps,

Kind regard,

Friends,
Regarding my vexing problem with Morphologika, one problem may be that when I bring my Noebook text file into Morphologica, although it is found, it says something about dimensions needing to be defined before data points. Now I have double checked, and in the MicroScribe utility program, I did specify metric, with a scaling ratio of 1.00 as instructed in Will's video. Nonetheless, all the data comes up in the right-hand column, and all looks goog. If I click on "OK", it says "Runtime Error '9'. Subscript out of range. Search as I may, I can find no such error.
Ideas?
Thanks for your help to this newbie. I can't get beyond this point.
Don

Friends,
I have finally found time to spend the better part of the day with the MicroScribe G2, the MS utility software, Morphologika, and have been somewhat successful.

I have created an Excel file of 34 data points/locations on a skull, copied and pasted it to Notepad, and, following Will's excellent video (now watched a dozen times, today minute-by-minute) typed in the correct commands.

What was on my notepad screen was exactly like his, to the letter.
Opening Morphologika, I brought in the file, watching his every move. Indeed, that command and data string were along the right side of the Morphologika window, just like his. When I hit "OK",

however, instead of getting a cluster of data points, I got one point only, in the center of a black field, as if it were displaying the centroid. When I enlarged that black screen, I just got a bunch of colored lights.

I have rechecked my work and the settings so many times now that I could
miss something simple because I have become numbed to it, thus my writing to you.
I have looked in the Morphological help menu to no avail. It clearly is not the machine, it is my "pilot error".
If you can think of a possible solution, please share it. If not, please forward this query to anyone you think may have the answer, as I can't proceed to wireframes, GOA, PCA and the like before I figure this out.

I bet it is something amazingly simple, I am just too dense to see it.
Thanks for reading this babble.
Don Lewis
