Hello:

I want to focus on the class mean estimation, and try to give constraint on the first class (with higher factor means), but I failed with all 0 values in both classes. Do I miss anything?

Here is my syntax, and thanks ~

MODEL:
f1 BY i1-i20@1;
f2 BY i21-i40@1;
f1@1;
f2@1;

MODEL g1:
f1;
[i1$1-i20$1](t1-t20);
f2;
[i21$1-i40$1](t21-t40);
[f1](meana);
[f2](meanb);
f1@1;
f2@1;

MODEL g2:
f1;
[i1$1-i20$1](t1-t20);
f2;
[i21$1-i40$1](t21-t40);
[f1-f2@0];
f1@1;
f2@1;
{i1-i40@1};

MODEL constraint:
meana > 0 ;
meanb > 0 ;

Send your output to Support along with your license number. When you do that, also explain why

You say "class" but you specify groups.

You fix the factor loadings at 1.
