Hi Kees, I think this is fixed in Ptolemy II 7.0.beta. Could you try the new version at http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptII7.0.
>From the VersionAttribute of your model, it looks like you were using Ptolemy II 6.0.2. I think I'm able to replicate the bug under 6.0.2: 1. Open the model, run it. One plot (a straight line) appears. 2. Close the plot window by clicking on the Windows X in the upper right corner. 3. Change nBlocks to 3, run the model. Three plots appear. 4. Close all three plots by clicking on the Windows X in the uppper right corner. 5. Change nBlocks to 1, run the model. Two plots appear! One plot should appear. However, I only got two plots under Ptolemy II 6.0.2. Under Ptolemy II 7.0.beta, I got one plot. Can you try upgrading and tell me if you get different results than what you were seeing before? I looked at saving the model and indeed under Ptolemy II 6.0.2, it looks like all instances are saved. Undere 7.0.beta, this is not the case. One odd thing is that when I run the model a relation is created in the upper left with no connections. When I save the model, the relation is then connected. This is a bug in the refresh of vergil. I created a bug for this: https://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=143 _Christopher Christopher Brooks (cxh at eecs berkeley edu) University of California Chess Executive Director US Mail: 337 Cory Hall #1774 Programmer/Analyst Chess/Ptolemy/Trust Berkeley, CA 94720-1774 ph: 510.643.9841 fax:510.642.2718 (office: 400A Cory) home: (F-Tu) 707.665.0131 (W-F) 510.655.5480 -------- Dear list, Today I started experimenting with the MultiInstanceComposite actor. However, it does not seem to work properly. I created a small test model that can be downloaded from: http://www.scintilla.utwente.nl/~keesv/multiinstance.zip The first time the model is run the nBlocks parameter is set to 1, which results in one instance of the MultiInstanceComposite actor. The second time the model is run the nBlocks parameter is set to 3, which results in three instances of the MultiInstanceComposite actor. This still works fine. However, the third time the model is run the nBlocks parameter is set to 1, still three instances of the MultiInstanceComposite actor appear. This does not seem right. It seems that when the number of desired instances is decreased the 'old' instances are still there. Also, it appears as if all instances of the MultiInstanceComposite actor are saved in the xml file, which does not seem right. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong? What can be done to solve this?
