While the 2.1.0beta10 release fixed a bug that caused Godley Tables opened in new windows from right-clicking the "Bank" Icon in the canvas to crash as soon as you click in the new window, it's still not showing the menu item I need when I right click in the window to revela the "Show cell values…" menu item (or similar) which is wokring on the Windows verision.

It should be feaisble to do this on the original Godley Table with a right-click (contextual menu) item., not to have to enter the Popup window replicating the Godley table.
Godley

Anyhow people on Windows can see the cell values printed to the table cells during Run and Pause of the model, can't seem to do it on Mac.

    -I can't get images to preview using either the upload or the URL mehtod (from Google Drive or iCloud file sharing) , god sourceforge is a mess. At least upload should work every time.

    It is a global preferences option, not an individual per table option.
    The options menu is there on the Mac, just as it is on Windows (On Mac, obviously, it is in the menubar at the top of the screen, not on the window itself).

    I like the idea of adding the Godley table preferences as a context menu item on the GodleyIcon, so I'll move this ticket to the feature request list - and we might schedule this for the Marx release.

    Also, currently the GodleyTableWindow does not display values - this will be a bit of work to implement, and may in fact be unnecessary now that Godley tables display in editor mode on the canvas.
