Remove focus when exporting models as image
when exporting I suggest to remove the focus from any construct (the black border around the construct as shown in the screenshot). I know one can easily do this manually but doing it automatically would reduce frustration if you see that you forgort to remove the focus only after some days.

Re: Remove focus when exporting models as image
I think the addition of this feature is rather difficult to remove it automatically. I never made a mistake like that, probably because it was used to draw with SmartPLS. Actually it's just a user error in drawing the model. If the user knows how to draw correct, the error will never occur.

We will evaluate if itis possible and how difficult it will be.

I would be happy if SmartPLS can add monte carlo simulation features such as IBM SPSS or Mplus and also testing measurement invariance automatically.

Re: Remove focus when exporting models as image
Thank you for your suggestions. We are welcoming all suggestions as it helps us improve our software and it is great to know what problems user face in their daily routines.
We are currently working on a Permutation Test for MGA, which will also include the MICOM procedure for invariance tests. These features will be part of one of the next releases as soon as they are thoroughly tested.
Monte Carlo Simulations are more problematic as they need a detailed specification of the model parameters, which is quite hard to achieve in a user friendly graphical setting. It is easier to achieve if you have a syntax based program, where you can specify each parameter in detail.

Re: Remove focus when exporting models as image
Good news, it will enhance the ability SmartPLS. Permutation is necessary to complete the bootstrapping approach. Coupled with the MICOM it would make testing PLS-MGA become easier with SmartPLS. Good job and great ideas.
