Re: erratic results on unabled-enabled Additional Inputs

Just as a possibly useful point: remember to click run multiple times to see repeated Monte Carlo runs of your entered conditions. The (statistical) uncertainties in the Monte Carlo process will provide End Portfolio Values that jump around somewhat. They should be higher sometimes and sometimes low...

Re: Spouse retirement plan and different age; Scenario suggestion

To keep things inside the model but still allow for your partner's separate income, fund accounts, social security events, withdrawals, etc. you can also use separate scenarios (top right drop down menu labeled "Scenarios:"). Each scenario is a complete, separate data set. Mine are labeled...

Re: Button typeface readability problem on Big Sur MacOS stand alone FRP

Apparently Java version 1.8.0_321 fixed the cosmetic FRP button problem.

I guess that's Java version 8 update 321 for the MacOS.

But then again, I have upgraded my Mac OS too.
Now Monterey version 12.2.1, so there is that....
That was Jim's take.

Hurray.

Directory and .frp file access for MacOS

When running Java-based Flexible Retirement Planner, like FRP poster Fortitude (post of Mar 29, 2021 1:08 pm), I often experience Java not displaying .frp files (or subdirectories) inside MacOS file directories that actually have .frp files in them. Very frustrating. I consider this a Java file-acce...

Re: Button typeface readability problem on Big Sur MacOS stand alone FRP

Jim, As usual you're right, this time about the tab background artifact. It's apparently OS/Java specific as far as I can tell and therefore independent of FRP version 4.03.03. Here's how I wasted my time: First I fired up my wife's relatively new MacBook with MacOS Big Sur (running OS v 11.1, like ...

Re: Button typeface readability problem on Big Sur MacOS stand alone FRP

Jim, Yeah I noticed that the browser version rendered those as tabs instead of buttons. I just called them buttons because they didn't appear as left justified tabs so I assumed they were Java buttons. While I've got you: do you know the type face used for those Summary View/Detailed View tabs? I wa...
