Dear David,

Good point. It's a limitation. If there are specific analysis you can't do
due to this limitation, you may call it a bug. However, there is an
alternative way to do it, so I would not call it a bug.

ALLEEG.epoch.

If I understand your point correctly...
If you have a single-epoch data, it is called a continuous data. I imagine
you have single trial data of condition A, B, C, etc. and want to make a
comparison across them on STUDY? Then I recommend you test them as
condition-separated continuous data. That way the process could be simpler.
