    Hi,

    I have two general questions on PyCont.

    1/ I've noticed that in some cases of extending equilibria that unstable lines can be represented by dashed-dot (neutral) vs. purely dashed lines (unstable). Is this someting intrinsic to the system or are there numerical parameters I can change to convert the dashed-dot lines to purely dashed lines?

    2/ When I try to continue an equilibrium point I've come up against this

    Warning: Detection of LP, BP points not implemented for curve EP-C.

    Would you know what the usual culprit of this is?

    Thanks!

    Hi Andrew,

    1. I hope Drew can answer this because I don't know how he chose to do it. But I would guess that these are supposed to be intrinsic to the system, unless maybe the linear algebra algorithms are having a hard time being stable with your setup.

    2. I'm not sure what you're asking. This is just a warning that these points can't be detected with the implementation that we have. If you want to avoid the warning I think you can deselect those point types before you run a continuation. If you want to be more specific maybe we can answer further, but I'm not the expert on this part of the package, I'm afraid.
