You just have to work with it. It's very powerful, but not an intuitive keystroke in the entire damned thing. You'll be up to speed with it by the time they go on to some other piece of analysis software.

Current least favourite thing is Toolbox - If I have multiple runs open in the same task I can't group select and hid them together I have to hide each one individually. Genius...

Believe it or not - especially for Pi(!) - the manual is actually very good for Toolbox and has full details of the (standard) maths engine functionality. I consider it to have the most powerful and easy to pick up maths engine out there, and the DO Wrapper is excellent

Contact anyone in the UK office off the Cosworth website and they'll send a pdf across

I would *love* to be using Toolbox at the minute...!

Hi Stu - personally I think the way Motec i2 treats units is far more intuitive and the way it graduates colour in X-Y-C plots is also better. Excel reports in Pi are cool though. I'll have a look at the DO Wrapper, whatever that is :-)

You at Le Mans?

Nope, not there this year, in Canada instead :)

DO Wrapper allows you to access the pds file without using Toolbox from C, Matlab, VB etc, so you can build some really nice analysis tools, you'd enjoy it I am sure!
