Graphpad Prism Offline

[Rolando Kumar]

Whenusing a 3G modem to connect to the internet, Network Manager does not understand what is happening. So apps like Firefox and Prism-based ones think I'm offline. In Firefox this is just a great annoyance, because it's possible to change (each-and-every-damn-time).

I think that this should also be fixed in xulrunner. If an error message is displayed that says "To go online, uncheck Work Offline from the File menu" then there should probably be a File menu to perform this action.

Also I can't use Prism Apps because I have disabled NetworkManager and configured my connection manually and now Prism can't find my connection even though I am posting this comment from the same box.

The error message instructs the user to use the file menu to put the application in "online mode" so that it will do something. In fact there is no file menu whatsoever and no discernible way to change the preferences. An application should never instruct a user to do something which they cannot possibly do, and that _is_ a bug.

Possible solutions:

-Add a button to either the error message or somewhere in the app* that allows them to do what the error message is telling them to do.

-Change the error message to tell the user that they need to contact the NM people to get their package fixed.

-Change the error message to tell the user that they should uninstall the app because it just ain't gonna work for them right now.

*There is a context menu available in the otherwise empty window that currently has "select all" as the only enabled option. Perhaps putting a toggle to "online mode" in there would be a good idea since there is currently nothing to select.

P.S. for any frustrated users finding this via a web search to completely disable the network manager check (a definite upgrade) then do the following. First make sure that there are no prism windows open.Then edit a file in your home directory called prefs.js located here .prism/.default/prefs.js Note that will be a random string of characters different to each person.

The easyest way to to completely disable the network manager check. would be torun the prism profile manager...

$ prism --ProfileManager

Select the profile you what to change(usualy default) and set the url to about:config.

when prism loads search for "networkmanager". Toggle the toolkit.networkmanager.disable option to true and your done.

Experimental biologists often need to compare the outcome of multiple treatments when data is collected over multiple doses or time points. This course explores how to statistically compare multiple treatment curves directly, without the need for repeated measurements, and highlight the utility of the procedure in revealing mechanistic insights.

The course has been adapted to be delivered remotely.

It includes a 2.5 hour online demonstration, offline exercises to become familiar with GraphPad Prism and workshop content, and an online optional workshop to answer questions and obtain assistance with your own data (all online).

The online demonstration in the scheduled live interactive session will involve a combination of lectures and live demonstration of using GraphPad prism to fit mathematical models to data and perform statistical analysis.

Participants are encouraged to ask questions throughout. A 1-2 week break will be provided for participants to work through exercises, case studies, and their own data before the optional live workshop takes place to answer questions.

Booking confirmation and reminder emails will send you the link for the live interactive session (held in Zoom) and joining instructions. To join the session, you can click on the link 15 minutes before the session.

It is now a requirement that you complete the three short questions in the survey you receive after attending the course. Once you have submitted the survey, you will be sent an email with a link to your attendance certificate. This is to ensure we receive the feedback we need to evaluate and improve our courses. Survey results are downloaded and stored anonymously.

Where no cost is indicated in the shopping trolley, no deposit is required. However, two or more non-attendances or late cancellations without good reason will be logged and may mean you cannot attend any further MSD training that term. Please refer to our Terms and Conditions for further information.

RSL will be hosting a series of workshops exploring different hardware and apps to help with academic reading, writing, and the responsible use of AI technology in academic work. More information can be found here.
