Two bugs in CSV export

[ FlexSim 17.0.9 ]

The LTS version seems to have two issues with exporting CSV data from a standard Tracked Variable chart, one more serious than the other.

  1. When exporting the data of a chart with more than one tracked variable, it seems that only the last series is exported. See the attached model in which I created a chart to show the content of the two queues. The corresponding exported file only has one series. Plotting this in Excel shows that it's the data for Queue2.
  2. When choosing a file name that already exists, the Save Dialog asks me if I want to overwrite that file. When I click yes, the exported data is actually appended to the existing file.

@Mischa Spelt, FYI, I just added .csv to the allowed file types for attachments. Thanks for mentioning it.

1. I checked this and didn't see the problem so I looked at your exported file and it does have two series.

2. Thanks for letting us know about this we will get it fixed.

Hi @Jacob Gillespie. Thanks for pointing out #1. I was expecting the series to be in two value columns in a single table, but it seems like there are two separate consecutive tables in the file. I may have seen this but mistaken it for an example of #2. Downside is that it takes some work to find out which table is which series.
