Regarding your first question about mode. You can use some features of the table to find the mode. One way to do this is to create a column that calculates a count of the cases and place this at a higher hierarchical level, so at first it will just count all of the cases. Then move whatever attribute you want up to that level to group by each unique value. Then sort the count descending. This will show you how often each value is present starting with the most frequent. See this video and this shared doc. Using this technique you can see if there is more than one mode.
Regarding bar graphs, it is typical that each bar in a bar graph presents some categorical value rather than a numerical value, so we follow that pattern in the expectations for the types of attributes that can be used to generate bar and line graphs.
Here’s a screencast in case my description was not clear.
Actually, I think it is the opposite. If you share a presentation you probably want autosave on so that it doesn’t ask if they want to save changes before moving to the next moment.
Each moment in the Story Builder plugin can save the state of the document at that time. By turning on Auto Save in the plugin, moving things around when you are on various moments will update the state of that moment automatically.
Note, this is only autosaving in the memory of the plugin. To save the CODAP document with the plugin that has various moments stored as part of the plugin you still need to save it to google drive or to your local machine.
If you have your own video file, then it can be uploaded to a server and then imported to codap. Here is an example: https://codap.concord.org/releases/latest/static/dg/en/cert/index.html#shared=https%3A%2F%2Fcfm-shared.concord.org%2FVc6rGDdQTqx8dFMyy4GE%2Ffile.json
Hi Jacob,
I tried to replicate this but didn’t see it. Am I setting things up differently than you did?

Glad you found a work around. No pressure, but I’m curious if you change the content type to be text/csv does that help? OK to not respond. 🙂
P.S. Before changing anything in the registry, be sure to note what was there in order to put it back if necessary.
OK. Getting a bit into the weeds here so understandable if this is not clear. It seems that on Windows the Registry may be used by Chrome to identify the mime type of the file being uploaded. Some other applications can modify this and it might interfere with Chrome being able to recognize the correct file type.
If you are comfortable it would be helpful to:
1. Check the windows registry to see how it maps .csv files to a mime or file type.
2. Change that to “text” to see if that helps.
To accomplish #1:
- Open the Registry Editor by clicking on the windows start icon and searching for “regedit”
- Drill down to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT->.csv
- Take a look at what it shows for that. Attached is a screenshot of what I’m seeing on my Win 10 setup.
To accomplish #2:
- edit the “PerceivedType” or “Content Type” to be “text” if yours is not already “text”
- reboot and try csv drop again

Windows 10 and updated Chrome worked for me as well.
In addition to Bill’s suggestion above you might also try clearing your browser cache (or opening CODAP in an incognito window).
I was able to import that csv into CODAP using Chrome without issue.
What version of the Chrome browser are you using?
Have you installed any new browser extensions recently?
Is your computer managed by your school? Could they be blocking uploads on Chrome?
Can you add the csv file as an attachment so we can take a look? Just tested a local csv and that worked, so it’s not a general issue with importing data.
Bill if movable values could be captured in the formulas, then one could manipulate the line and see reflections in the formulas automatically updated. Not sure how often a feature like that would be used though.
This doc shows some options. One can calculate a count or calculate a quadrant and then color by quadrant. If you turn on “show measures for selection” in the graph, then clicking on one of the quadrants in the legend will select just those and show a count in the upper right. https://codap.concord.org/releases/latest/static/dg/en/cert/index.html#shared=https%3A%2F%2Fcfm-shared.concord.org%2FhsqIEZxkwpcYCUHSyR35%2Ffile.json
