Hi Enno, I think all of these things could be implemented, though I can imagine some of them may be difficult to work with in practice (for example, negative TE wedge angle and variable TE thickness). However, I could probably code them up and you could give it a go. No promises on when that will be done, though. I've been busy with other interests lately and Xoptfoil has been on the backburner for awhile. Sorry about that. I do have a version 2.0 in the works, which I'm sure will be finished eventually....
Feature Request
Warning could not find interpolants
matplotlib.version '1.3.1' ok, i'll try to update my tools
bug with: moment constraint: specify
Yes, be careful that you are not using a text editor that adds "fancy" characters when you don't mean to. I have an idea on the back burner to make a dedicated input editor for Xoptfoil, which would avoid these problems, but that may or may not actually happen.
What version of matplotlib are you using? 1.5.0 or later is recommended. To find out: Run python from command line import matplotlib matplotlib.__version__

bug: in xoptfoil_visualizer
hello i found my "bug" when i change something in inputs.txt file, my texteditor change sometimes the apostroph sign to a similar one.... and than xoptfoil didn't recognise it... thank you for your help
Yes!!! I've just started the optimization and it does work now. I am also very excited to test the new feature to increase the lift curve slope. Thank you very much!
It's working here. I think you have misspelled some other variable in the constraints namelist.
Xoptfoil 1.11.0 is out, and your case should work now. Please report back if it doesn't; otherwise I will close this. (Or you can close it if it does work.)
bug with: moment constraint: specify
Alright Dan! I will look out for it after the next realese. Once again i would like to thank you for your amazing job it's being very helpfull to my team.
There were a couple things Xoptfoil was struggling with for your seed airfoil: figuring out the point ordering and finding the leading edge. I've improved the algorithms for both of these operations, and now your case is handled fine. These improvements will be included in the next release, or if you don't want to wait, they will be reflected on the Github development page later today (https://github.com/montagdude/Xoptfoil). I'll close this ticket after the next release.
Hi Caíque, I didn't see this message because the notifcation from SourceForge went in my junk email. I will take a look at your case soon and get back to you. Dan
this is the seed airfoil

Everything works great now, thanks for your help!
I see, good job! I'll check it out. By the way another quick question, in one of...
Italo, I believe I fixed the issue. The problem came in the thickness checks, where...

Okay, thanks. I will look into it. When I run your input file as is, it doesn't give...
Sorry I was distracted, finally here it goes
Can you post it as an attachment, along with your inputs.txt file?
Of course, I totally forgot about that. It's the NACA2415.

Yep, that's fixed it. Thanks Dan. Really appreciated.

Tested, works fine. Thanks !
Yep, works fine :)

sorry double post :)
The new command line option to specify an output file works nicely, except the resulting...
