The same thing works for loops/causal chains as well.

I thought you could drag/drop from the error panel onto the sketch, but I must have missed adding that functionality in.

No, it does not change the calculation. But units errors should be fixed, they indicate an error in logic in your equations.

This is why they are important, https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-27509559

I'll get onto that and produce a demo.

On the sketch toolbar.

We need to update the help system as Venapps have been replaced with GUI objects. More details on them are here. https://www.vensim.com/documentation/user-interface-objects.html Now you add GUI objects to the sketch rather than program a separate user interface. You can also find an example model on...

I've been working on something to address this. I'll prioritise it.

Would IF THEN ELSE do what you need?

Let me experiment as there might not be a way to do this. I'll try though.

It would help if you can reply to this thread and let me know of any other places where the text is not showing up correctly.

The causal table is in 10.1.4, depending on when your maintenance lapsed, you might have access to it. Try logging into the download area (link below) and see if you have access.

I'm not familiar with Kumu, but it sounds like the causal table is probably the tool you need.

Are you sure you cannot get access to that tool? It's been in Vensim for a while, if your licence is still under maintenance you can upgrade to get it.

The email you received when you downloaded PLE contains a link to a tutorial.

No. What kind of thing do you need?

Dark mode still needs work on Windows as I mentioned in the other thread.

I think Tom is referring to GET DATA MIN/GET DATA MAX (https://www.vensim.com/documentation/fn_get_data_min.html?q=GET+DATA+MIN). The GET DATA XLS (etc) functions execute before the rest of the model calculations, and only executes once. The data structures are then populated and used by the simulat...

Yes, dark mode has only just been made "official" in Windows 11. It should be possible to enable it now in the same way it works on the Mac. Dark mode sketch is already available (under the view menu). We'll need time to properly test the rest of the interface, but it should be relatively ...

Not yet. We are still working on things.

I've ticketed this internally so we will look at adding them.

Sounds like a permissions issue.

There used to be a way to fix permissions on a Mac, but I think Apple have hidden that behind some other setting now. But if you search the web for this error, there are solutions.

Upon redownloading Vensim version 10.3.1 on Windows 11 Home, the toolbar icons have all had their colour inverted. Can you turn off dark mode and see if the icons are ok? Additionally, all the menus, particularly the equation menu has lost nearly all functionality, not providing equations nor havin...

I'm out of office all day (I'll contact you later), but you could try PLE.

I cannot see anything obvious in the file that would cause problems.

Do things improve if you turn off Tools->Options->Variable appearance, "Show underbars"?

And are you able to share a model with us in case that is at fault (vensim@vensim.com)?

Can you send us your Vensim settings file? If you open Windows explorer and type in %APPDATA%\vensim, you'll find a file called vensimdp.ini.

All you can do is hard code them into the equations in the model. PLE cannot read data from external files.

If you are using PLE, your only option for an interface is to use SD Everywhere or Forio.

Strange. I'll have to temporarily remove the release until I can find out why this has happened. Same thing happens on my M1 Air, and the Intel installer is not showing the licence agreement for some reason.

Back to building on a 10 year old Mac.
