March 2014:
I don't like change. So I looked at the "Enhanced Graph Accessibility" option, tried it out, and went back to the old edit system. That was a few days ago.
Today I was finishing up a graph, and wanted to change the color of Line 5. But I could not, because the color-change window (in the old edit system) now appears halfway off the screen. I could not scroll the screen to access the color-data field because scrolling the screen makes the color-change window disappear.
I was going to blog that problem. But then I remembered the new system. I switched to the new system and changed the color easily. Then I changed the line type from SOLID to DASH, and the graph was done.
I was all set to set the size to 800x450 and download the image. That's when I discovered that I could not find the set-graph-size fields in the Enhanced system. So I went back to the old edit system and set the size there, no problem. Then I looked at my graph.
Problema! Line 5 appears as a SOLID line in the old system. I switched to the Enhanced system, and checked: In the new system the line is DASHed. I switched again to the old system and checked: In the old system the line is SOLID.
My new-system graph is https://fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/?g=1Cnix
In the old system I'm editing line 5 to make it DASHed.
The line changed to DASHed, as expected.
I saved it in the old system as: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/?g=1Cnku
I opened 1Cnku in a new window, and the line came up SOLID.
I went back to the original 1Cnku, where line 5 was DASHed, and refreshed the screen. Line 5 came up SOLID here, too.
Yikes!
Okay. I reloaded 1Cnix, the one where I changed the color for line 5, and the line type to DASHed. Line 5 came up as solid here, too. Looks to me like it makes the change on the screen, but does not save it (Share Links: Page Short URL") in EITHER system.
I need a drink!
