    It appears as if your V7 installation is corrupted or damaged or just not installed correctly.

    The first clue is that the calc_pids.txt file could not be found - that file should always be installed during a successful install.

    The second and more obvious clue is the error message that you are seeing is not in the latest V7 software. This is the error message you posted:

Views:	142 
Size:	159.3 KB 
ID:	23729

    Notice the spelling mistake on "seleceted"?

    This is the error message that you should see if you have correctly installed the latest V7 version (public or beta):

    Maybe try uninstalling V7 and deleting the V7 installation folder C:\Program Files (x86)\EFILive\V7.5 (assuming that is where you installed it).
    Then re-install the latest V7 software.

    When you run the V7 Tune Tool, select the Help->About option and make sure you are running version:
    V7.5.32 (for the public release) or
    V7.5.34 (for the latest beta release).

    OK, looks like I've confused the issue. Your first post was about the V7.5 software, so I assumed the complaints about pasting with labels were also about V7.5
    However, After doing some investigation, the error message you posted is actually from the V8 software.
    So firstly I need to fix the spelling mistake in that error message (oops) and secondly I need to understand how you are copying/pasting data.

    Are you copying from a V7 scan tool map and pasting into the V8 tune editor?

    One thing to note about the V8 editor is that it won't allow values that cannot be stored in the ECM. For example most spark tables will only allow an accuracy down to 0.5 degrees. So if you have a cell with 31.5 degrees in it and you perform a "paste and subtract" option that causes 0.1 degrees to be subtracted so that the value becomes 31.4 degrees, then the V8 editor will force that value back to 31.5 degrees because the ECM can only store the values: 30.5, 31.0, 31.5, 32.0 etc. It cannot store any values in between.

    See this post for more details:

    Yes I did copy with labels. I'm Uninstaller everything, and will try a re install shortly. Thank you for replying.

    The question I am trying to figure out is:

    Are you copying from a V7 scan tool map and pasting into the V8 tune editor?

    If so what versions of V7 and V8 are installed?

    Regards

    Sorry Paul. Yes I am copying from V7.5.32 and trying to paste to V8.3.3.

    I just opened the tune in V7.5.32 and it pastes properly from the scan in V7.5.32.

    But even after the reinstall I can't get the copy with labels from B5914 to paste properly to B5913 under V8.3.3 even within the same tune

    I got thinking last night so I did a paste to Notepad with Tune V7.5, Tune Tool V8, and Scan V7.5. RPM row under Tune V7.5 are listed as RPM, under Tune Tool V8 as <rpm>, and under Scan V7.5 as RPM. Not sure if this would cause the problem

    I tried it again using V7 Scan and V8, these were my results:

    The V7 scan tool map. I'm using the "n" (number of cell hits) option so that I can copy some useful data, since I had zero knock displayed when using the "x" (average) display.

    That's weird. Still the same results. I am doing everything like you are, and it won't work in V8 only V7. Can you copy with labels 4 grouped cells in low octane and paste with labels to high octane and have only those 4 cells populate?
