You can now use a predefined list of Regions in the Data Tree. This Region filter will be applied on any category or sub-category that contains a Region tree.

You can now apply a set of filter lists for regions and sources to filter releases in the Release Activity. These filters are the same as the ones that you define in the Search Activity.
If you preferred selecting regions the old way, you can still use the tab “Region”.
Observation labels can now refer to a range of values and to a range of graphs.
You can now copy a graph, ornament or graph annotation and then right click and select “Paste style” to apply it to another object of the same type.
In Macrobond 1.19, you can copy & paste ornaments and annotations within the same chart, or in another chart.
Keep in mind:
When applying a dashed line-style in your charts, it’s possible that some data points may fall between the dashes when there are many points on a line. This is usually not a problem, but it can become one if the graph happens to end with the space between dashes. We now make sure that a graph always ends with a dash rather than a space so that the last data point is always visible.
As the end of a graph is typically more important, this might mean the gap is placed at the start of the line instead.
There is now a setting for the Step length for x-axis in scatter charts.
You can now sort the time series listed in the Series Information tab. The state will be stored per document.
There is an option for selecting “Chinese New Year” as a regression variable in the X-13 Seasonal adjustment analysis. This works only for monthly data.
Download the Macrobond document below for an example of how this analysis can be used.
You can add a trend constant regression variable by checking box in the constant column.
The formula “Trimean” has been added. It returns the Tukey’s trimean.
A new setting, called Diff, has been added to the Regression analysis. Selecting it will use the first order of differences of the series in the model. The result will be converted back to levels.
This setting allows you to set the same chart layout for the last page, when automatically dividing charts into separate pages using the paginator. Without this setting the layout (and size of charts) will adapt to the number of charts on the last page.
When you rename the chart nodes in the analysis tree, this is the name that will be used for the chart in presentation documents. In version 1.19, If you haven’t renamed the chart nodes, the document name will be used instead “time chart” for example.
The application will automatically save a snapshot of all documents that are open, every 30 seconds. These will be used if the application is terminated abnormally. When closing the application normally, you’ll be prompted to keep these snapshots or discard them. This feature will also be used to remember the state when the computer is restarted by Windows Update.
This command will revert the document to the state of the document that was last saved.
There is now a context menu when you right click on a tab in Analytics and Browse. These options are available on the view menu too.
The new version can be installed directly via the Macrobond application by clicking on the yellow ribbon, which appears on the screen, or by selecting Check for update in the Help menu. If you need assistance, a description of how to upgrade can be found here.
