More info – these files are on Google Drive and are not owned by me, but are shared with me. Could that be a problem? It didn’t used to be..
Just wondering, since it’s a week after 1/27, if there’s a new version coming out today. There were definitely some questions from kids when we introduced the UN dataset last week about the “holes” in the graph (i.e. areas that weren’t colored when we colored the graph by some variable) and I’m curious if I’ll be able to show them that the graph has been updated tomorrow.
Thanks!
I’m not at all sure what just happened – but I minimized one graph and now it seems to be saving, both on Google Drive and locally. I did have a lot of graphs open (8 or 9) and a text box – could that have been a problem? Most of the graphs had multiple attributes graphed on the Y-axis; one of them had 5 attributes on the y-axis. Since that’s a newish feature, could it possibly have been the issue?
Here’s a link to the shared view, which is now working.

I just tried to save this same file as a LOCAL file so that I could do some experiments without losing everything – but it won’t save locally either. I choose “local file” but nothing happens when I click “download” – it stays grey and only Cancel is available to choose.
Let me do some experimenting. One thing I did try yesterday was to rename the file – but that didn’t get saved either, so I guess that’s one piece of information. I do have multiple Google accounts, so that could be part of the problem, but I thought I was logged in to the same one the whole time I was working on the file. I’ll poke around a bit more and let you know if I find out anything helpful.
A few follow-ups on this.
In terms of the first issue (can’t save through a short-cut), the folder I wanted to save to was shared with me from another account, but I can’t actually log into that account.
On the second issue, I am really mystified by the following: I’ve been working on the very same file I mentioned above to reproduce the work I lost. Everything was fine and it was updating on Google Drive until this afternoon, when I noticed that the screen said UNSAVED. I waited, but nothing happened. I decided to force it to save and CODAP dutifully asked me if I wanted to overwrite the old version – to which I replied “yes” – but it didn’t get saved and the document still says UNSAVED. I looked at the version history and there are 100 versions there – since I did a lot of work – did I overrun a stack? I’ve attached a few screen shots, but I don’t think they’ll really tell you anything.
