Hi to all:
I have read User Postings Problem: Export Tool in FlexPDE Saving Partial Data ... of the forum where R.G.Nelson says :
I don't remember the history of this very well, but at some point long ago we imposed a limit of 12228 points on a history plot. If the list grows above this value, the data are averaged back to 8192 points, and the run continues, only to be averaged again when 12228 is reached.

This was intended as a fix to some user problem, and I suppose it was related to how many points one could actually display on a plot. But in retrospect it seems a really silly thing to do.

I have removed this limit and posted revised versions at www.pdesolutions.com/download/xfpde222c1win.exe
and
www.pdesolutions.com/download/xfpde310c1win.exe.
These are self-extracting archives containing only flexpde.exe (or flexpde3.exe). They are not full installations.

Version 2 uses 16-bit integers in some places to store counters, so there is a possibility of trouble if the problem runs past 65535 timesteps. This should not be a problem with version 3, but neither of the posted versions has been fully tested in cases of very large numbers of time steps.

In version 4, we have provided a selectable limit, with "no limit" as the default behavior.

I am using FlexPDE 5.0.9
The question is How can I invalidate the limit of data when exporting a history unless make that means?
Many thanks

The default history list in version 5 is 16000 entries.
Use
SELECT HISTORY_LIMIT=<number>
to change the limit.

All integers in version 5 are 32 bits, so the remark about the 65535 limit in version 2 is no longer applicable.
