Windows workarounds...

Workarounds to some (appearance and locale) problems :
1. Cannot open recent files with unicode filenames: Create an environmental parameter with the name "JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS" and set its value to: "-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8" 2. Awful icons in toolbar: In "JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS" add "-Dsun.java2d.uiScale=1.0". Drawback: smaller characters in plot view. 3. For a more "Windows" look and feel add in "JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS": "-Dswing.aatext=true -Dswing.plaf.metal.controlFont="Segoe UI Normal-15" -Dswing.plaf.metal.systemFont="Segoe UI Normal-13" -Dswing.plaf.metal.userFont="Segoe UI Normal-15" -Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=lcd" 4. Dealing with the small numbers problem in a calibration bar (i.e. numbers smaller than 0.1 are not interpreted correctly - see other post in this thread). Add in "JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS" the value "-Djava.locale.providers=COMPAT,CLDR,SPI".
All solutions are working with the bundled Java verion (9.0.4) and newers.
First problem: Setting the length of the calibration stick, after the tracking of a mass point has been completed, the data table is not automatically updated. I have to press play button for the video to be reproduced and then the data table is updated. The same happens when I change the orientation of the axes from the toolbar.
Second problem: Defining a new fit function in data tool is not working. See attached picture.
