It worked for me from Excel. I had to move the cursor to the border of the highlighted block of cells so I could get the “hand” cursor for dragging cells around. If I dragged into CODAP I got an imported data set.

For a website to be visible inside CODAP it needs to use a secure connection (i.e. url starts with https). Did you try https://www.stochastik-in-der-schule.de/

Some websites also don’t allow themselves to be framed by another website. In that case there is nothing you can do short of asking the website owner to remove the code that prevents their site form displaying unless it is the top level parent.

You might want to ask your student to submit a different link. That link is directly to the CODAP file stored directly on the student’s google drive. You likely don’t have access to that (at least through the CODAP application). If the student creates a share link using the menu to the left of the document title, then they can submit that and it should work.

One quick solution would be to use the browser zoom to increase the size of the graph before taking a screenshot. That will keep the proportions in the graph and give you many more pixels.

I haven’t seen this for a while, but it sometimes happens when there is an update to CODAP and the local browser cache is not getting all of the most recent files. I’d suggest closing any tabs that have CODAP, clearing the browser cache and trying again. Alternately to see if it is a caching issue you can try opening the CODAP document using an incognito window.

There is an expected situation when one can’t open a CODAP doc saved to Google Drive: When one account was used to save it and another account is used to open it. We’ve seen this with some people who have work and personal google accounts, even if both accounts should have the same access to the file. If one account was used to save and another account was attempting to open, it can cause an error. Not saying that is what is happening in this case, but might be an issue for some.

Try this: if(original_attr=”little” or original_attr=”none”, “little to none”, original_attr)

Hi Travis.

You can use the browser’s zoom feature to make the graph very big and then take a screenshot.

[Dan Damelin]

One possibility would be to add some options to the menu that pops up when you click an axis title. If the axis is categorical we could provide a “Sort…” submenu and give options like [alphabetically (ascending), alphabetically (descending), by value (ascending), by value (descending)]. I think it needs some design thinking, but may be possible.

If printing all of the table data is important, you can export it using the Ruler icon, and then open it in a spreadsheet application. However, you will lose any hierarchical structure that is in the CODAP table if there is any.

Andee, regarding Bill’s suggestion above that is the direction I was going on the Zoom call with Steven and you yesterday. Of course you lose scale along the x-axis if you change that attribute to categorical.

Hi Andrew,

Any chance you might be on flakey internet when it is not working? I believe I once saw this same thing a long time ago, and thought it had something to do with resources not fully downloading or the browser cache referring to some older version of one of the resource files.

Regarding multiple shares, I was referring to Create a copy and then sharing the copy. Glad to hear it is working now. If you notice anything that is consistent about the times you see this happen let us know and we will try to track it down.

Two things to try which might tell us if it is the internet connection.

1. Try holding down the shift key and reloading the browser page. Then try sharing again.
2. Open an incognito window and then load the doc to see if the sharing dialog is working.

If either of those work to consistently fix the sharing dialog issue. It is likely incomplete resource download (or some browser caching issue).

[Dan Damelin]

Andrew,

You can only have one share point per CODAP document. This is to simplify having to manage multiple share points and works for most of our use cases. You can however make a copy of your doc, adjust it and then send out a share link to that copy. (or you can open your own share link, make a change, then share that)

Hi Jo,

It would be helpful if you could provide a share link to the document showing this issue.

Once you have created a graph with a categorical axis. You can drag the categories into a particular order. If you only have a few categories that might be OK. Interesting idea about having a setting for ordering the categorical variable once plotted. What kinds of settings would you imagine?
