Re: Selecting portions of the output to paste into a document

[Bastián Díaz]

Hi Mark.

Unable to select data in the output window, however, if you can copy tables or complete procedures and pasting into another document.

To perform this action, you must select the table, chart or procedure in the left sidebar and copy from the edit menu (also works in the keyboard shortcut), and at the time the information is in the clipboard and you can paste in Word, LO Writer and other word processor. Then you can leave the data you want editing them with the word processor you use.

Another method is to export the output to another format (eg plain text or OpenDocument format) and from that file and you select portions of data.

I hope this information helps.

regards

Asunto: Selecting portions of the output to paste into a document

Hi folks,

Back again.

Got the data in through Libre (Thanks, Chris), have done some test runs and I am delighted. Brings back semi-fond memories of long nights running SPSS on an IBM 360. And waiting. And waiting. Fortunately now I am running PSPP 0.8.0 on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.8.4. 

BUT . . . 

I can't select portions of the output viewer to paste into other docs. I can't even successfully do the export option suggested in the archive. I have unsuccessfully looked for files that have been suggested as the source of the output window. Perhaps the suggestions were appropriate in a PC/Windows world . . . 

So the question is: If I have done a whole bunch of analysis and want to copy, let's say, the rotated factor loading and paste them into a doc, is there something that works on the Mac platform? Clearly highlighting the desired section and hitting Command C ain't working.

Once again: HELP!!

Once again: Thanks to the community!!

Cheers,

Mark
