Add a static Coefficent Wave to a fit function

You can always make a coefficient wave, fill it with initial guesses, and then select it on the Coefficients tab of the Curve Fit dialog. I'm not sure what you mean by "static" and "dynamic".

Hello,

sorry for beeing not clear. With dynamic I was referring to a function calculating the coefficient start values from within the fit function it self. This had been already discussed here (I yust don't find the link right now).

I know that I could create a wave file containing the coefficients before entering the fit dialog and select it there. I was wondering if it was possible to define the start coefficient wave in the fit function it self so I would reduce the working steps when fitting via the dialog.

No, not yet. One of my dreams is to figure out a nice syntax for specifying an "autoguess" function that could be called by FuncFit to provide automatic initial guesses. Development of such a function can be pretty tricky, though.

That would be really awesome (and badly needed ;) ). An other nice thing would be function that is called after the fit finished to do additional adjustment. In the simplest case something like setting the style of the fit result text box.

You can, of course, choose what's included in the text box before the fit. But if you mean that you want to post-process the textbox in order to change text styles and such, that would require a post-processing step.

A post-processing function would be nice, too. It would make it easy for folks to transform things like the width of a Gaussian to FWHM.
