Dear morphometricians

Yesterday, I uploaded a new release of MorphoJ, version 1.05c, to the 
web site:
http://www.flywings.org.uk/MorphoJ_page.htm

This version includes bug fixes in several places in the program that 
stop analyses if there are not enough degrees of freedom, and prevents 
crashes in those analyses of if the output is later used otherwise. It 
affects the following: Generate Covariance Matrix, Regression, Partial 
Least Squares (both between separate blocks and within a single 
configuarion of landmarks). Thanks to Soledad de Esteban and the 
participants of the recent workshop on morphometrics and phylogeny in 
Sabadell for making me aware of the problem. 

The program also fixes a bug in the computation of independent contrasts 
(when mapping data onto a phylogeny), which concerned the handling of 
zero-length branches. Thanks to Soledad de Esteban for telling me about 
the problem. 

A further minor bug fix was added in the computation of PC scores from 
phylogenetically independent contrasts. For this kind of data, PC scores 
are now computed without centering (a contrast of zero will now produce 
a PC score of zero). 

Best wishes,
Chris
