I just tried this on my macbook and didn't have an issue. Is this virus checker a DOM1 thing, or something?
It would also be useful to understand what the reason is you're downloading image to your machine.
Useful to know the workaround.
I'm on DOM1 so could well be. I'm downloading graphs, which have been saved as images, from R studio. Interestingly, if you then .zip up multiple images and download them you can download the .zip but you can't then open the images within.
Others have confirmed this bug with me .
@alexander-newton we've had a chat about this and appreciate knowing about this issue of using AP on DOM1. However it's difficult to see a good way to improve this. The work-around isn't too difficult for users, fixing DOM1 is a huge task. Using AP for this sort of casual work of producing the odd graph is nice, but the core aim for AP is to support RAP-style analysis work, where the graphs are embedded in an app or HTML output, rather than downloaded for manual use. So I think given these constraints we'll not prioritize work on it right now, and leave it hear as a known limitation. Closed but not solved.
If you export an image from R Studio as a .png or .jpg (probably other formats too) the virus scanner always flags it and stops your from downloading. Current workaround is to save as a .txt and then change it back once downloaded.
