[Grapher] Directory does not exist when a file is selected #70

Open patzinak opened 8 years ago

patzinak commented 8 years ago

There is no issue in changing the directory in the grapher directory tree but when a file is selected an error pops up in the command prompt window saying that the directory does not exist.

Not sure whether I've saved the data in the right format but the error type seems to be confusing. The directory and the file exist. The grapher plotting area disappears when the error pops up. It seems that upon a second attempt to select the same file, the error does not appear but the grapher plotting area has already gone and it is not clear how to restore it.

This issue was related to the direction of a slash in the DATA_CHEST_ROOT environment variable. This is noted in the dataChest documentation, and is therefore not a bug, but the code should be changed to accept back slashes for this path.
