Saving the Session
The curve fitting session is defined as the current collection of fits for all data
sets. You may want to save your session so that you can continue data
exploration and analysis at a later time using the Curve Fitting Tool without
losing any current work.
Save the current curve fitting session by selecting the menu item
File->Save
Session
from the Curve Fitting Tool. The Save Session dialog is shown below.
The session is stored in binary form in a
cfit file, and contains this
information:
• All data sets and associated fits
• The state of the Fitting GUI, including
Table of Fits entries and exclusion
rules
• The state of the Plotting GUI
To avoid saving unwanted data sets, you should delete them from the Curve
Fitting Tool. You delete data sets using the Data Sets pane of the Data GUI. If
there are fits associated with the unwanted data sets, they are deleted as well.
You can load a saved session by selecting the menu item
File->Load Session
from the Curve Fitting Tool. When the session is loaded, the saved state of the
Curve Fitting Tool display is reproduced, and may display the data, fits,
residuals, and so on. If you open the Fitting GUI, then the loaded fits are
displayed in the
Table of Fits. Select a fit from this table to continue your curve
fitting session.
