Le novità di Prism 10,1

Prism 10.1.0 introduces a diverse set of new features and functionality along with a wide range of important bug fixes identified in previous versions of Prism 10.

Feature Improvements

• Introduced new options to define symbol size on Multiple Variables graphs. In addition to scaling symbol sizes by defining the smallest symbol size, you may now also choose to scale by defining the largest symbol size. OR you can define both the smallest and the largest symbol sizes, and Prism will appropriately scale all symbol sizes in between!

Smallest symbol set to size 10

Largest symbol set to size 40

Smallest symbol set to size 10 AND Largest symbol set to size 40

• Added the ability to define a Random Seed for all data simulations offered in Prism:
  • Simulate XY data
  • Simulate Column data
  • Simulate 2×2 Contingency data
• Expanded the size of data that Prism could process with Fisher’s exact test. Prism 10.1.0 can now perform Fisher’s exact test on any MxN contingency table (limited by total number of observations)
• Improved confidence intervals calculated from Dunnett’s T3 multiple comparisons test by increasing the accuracy for numerical integration
• Improved performance throughout the application, including:
  • Opening files with large amounts of data
  • Opening files with numbers of excluded/empty values
  • Opening files with a huge number of data sheets (up to 500)
  • Saving files manually with large amounts of data
  • Autosaving files
  • Generating graph previews
  • Rendering graphs (specific improvement for graphs with large amounts of data)
  • Analysis performance (specific improvements in Pearson correlation)
  • The Magic feature (generating previews, responsiveness of selecting options)
  • Copying layouts (specific improvements on Windows)
  • Navigating large projects (switching between gallery and sheet views, switching to layouts with large images)
  • Importing data (specific improvements for Grouped data)
• Prism Cloud Beta: after publishing your project, view your Data and Results along with your Graphs and Layouts in the Prism Cloud web application (eligible subscriptions only)
• Removed support for WebP image import

Requisiti di Sistema di Prism 10

Prism non ha particolari requisiti e funzionerà bene su qualsiasi computer acquistato negli ultimi anni.

Ecco i dettagli:

Prims 10 for Windows

• Operating System. Runs under the 64-bit versions of Windows 10 and 11. Prism 10 does not support 32-bit editions of Windows.
• CPU. x86-64 compatible. Note: Prism Windows is not currently offered in a version compiled to run natively on ARM chipsets (i.e. Qualcomm Snapdragon). However, Prism Windows can run on ARM-powered devices using x64 emulation which is now generally available with Windows 11
• RAM. For comfortable performance and responsiveness, Prism requires the following amount of RAM:
  • 2 GB RAM for up to 2 million data cells in currently open Prism files
  • 4 GB RAM for 2-8 million data cells
  • 8 GB RAM for 8-16 million data cells
  • 16 GB RAM for greater than 16 million cells
• Display. The minimum display resolution is 800 x 600, but the recommended display resolution for comfortable work is 1366 x 768.
• HDD. Requires about 100 MB (megabytes) of space on the hard drive.
• Internet. Prism must connect to the internet to verify the license when it is first activated. It will also attempt to connect upon every launch, and every 24 hours if the application is not closed. To continue operating, this connection must be successful once every 30 days (or 20 attempts, whichever comes sooner).
• Additional Information. Prism requires that the Microsoft Edge WebView2 rendering component be installed to correctly display pages in the Welcome Dialog. This is already installed by Microsoft on most new devices, but will be included with the Prism installation if it is missing.

Prims 10 for Mac

• Operating System. Runs under macOS X 10.15 (Catalina) or later. If you use macOS 10.14, Prism will launch and seems to run OK, but we haven’t tested Prism thoroughly under this version of macOS and can’t provide much support. If you use 10.14, we urge you to update MacOS.
• CPU. Prism Mac is delivered as a Universal Binary and will run natively on both Apple silicon and Intel-based Mac computers.
• RAM. There is no particular requirement for RAM on Mac. Prism will run fine on all standard configurations of Macs manufactured by Apple.
• Display. Requires a display with a resolution of at least 1024 x 768 pixels.
• HDD. Requires about  130 MB (megabytes) of space on the hard drive..
• Internet. Prism must connect to the internet to verify the license when it is first activated. It will also attempt to connect upon every launch, and every 24 hours if the application is not closed. To continue operating, this connection must be successful once every 30 days (or 20 attempts, whichever comes sooner).
