Create new set of XGobi files By making selections from a set of menus, you can specify a set of parameters to define a new set of files which is derived from the current set -- for example, some subset of the current data. New root file name Specify newfname, the base name for the new file set. This should probably not be the same as the base name for the current data. Data stage Save raw data Save the data before any variable transformations that may have been applied. Save transformed data Save the data all variable transformations. Data format Save data as ascii Write out the file newfname.dat containing ascii data. Save data as binary Write out the file newfname.bin containing binary data. You might want to choose this option for a very large set of data -- or you might write out ascii for now for readability and generate the binary file later using the other 'Save' panel. Row-wise data Specify which rows are to be saved, which will be applied to all relevant data files: newfname.dat, newfname.colors, etc. Use the file newfname.rowindx Define a file in the target directory which contains a single column, a list of the rows you'd like to include in the new files, in any order you choose. Save all currently displayed points Save everything that is not currently erased. Save all points Column-wise data Specify which columns are to be saved, which will be applied to all relevant data files: newfname.dat, newfname.cols, etc. Use the file newfname.colindx Define a file in the target directory which contains a single column, a list of the columns you'd like to include in the new files, in any order you choose. This is a simple way to reorder variables. Save all columns Missing data Write out missings as 'na' This applies only when writing out ascii data: for each missing value, write out the string 'na'. Write out currently assigned values Write out the currently assigned value for each missing data point. This may be some fixed value assigned to each missing point, or it may be the current set of imputed data.
