#216: Behaviour of "nograph" option is not consistent --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: sebastien | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: 4.3 Component: Core M-files | Version: Keywords: | --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- The reference manual says that with the "nograph" options, Dynare "doesn't do the graphs".
This options indeed prevents Dynare from displaying graphs, but it still creates PDF/EPS files in some parts of the code (but not).
For example, stoch_simul+nograph won't create PDF/EPS files for IRFs, but estimation+nograph will still create some PDF/EPS files.
This is inconsistent. Moreover, some users would like to have the possibility of not saving the graphs (http://www.dynare.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=3362)
I think we should either decide that "nograph" means "do not display nor save graphs", or create a new option like "nographsave" which would allow full flexibility with regard to displaying/saving graphs.
